Couple of questions on the hydraulic ram/pump/jack on the back of a MkI. Were they all armoured (or covered or plated) like the one on Sir Archibald in Gaza, or was that just a Palestine Detachment?modification? What way up were they? The Airfix instructions direct you to put the cylinder at the botto...

Were there any French ground units at any time in WW1 wearing the tunic (vareuse) rather than the usual coat (capote) together with puttees in combat? So far I think this became common towards the end of the war. In 1914-1917, it seems the Chasseurs Alpines and later tank crews wore this dress, while ca...

These are British folding wirecutters in my collection, these ones are 1917 dated and built by Chater Lea who made motor cars, motorcycles and bicycles. The earliest folding wire...
