US looking Bell tent, by Abbey Tents Ltd
Used by our re-enactment group for many years, we now have large paramid so not been used for ages,


Good condition, some fading but a very good usable tent, sleeps 4-5,
All poles and pegs etc folds up into kit bag size

Will be taking to Beltring, come and have a look,
will be on the 508th PIR display in the LH field

Offers around £100 first come first served,

Looks good but did the U.S. have bell tents?

Good price!

The nearest thing was the Pyramidal. Sounds as though it could be a post-war Arctic Tent of sorts.

Cheers,
Ben.

Blue and white stripes are Navy Seersucker uniforms! Army Nurse Corps Seersucker uniforms were brown and white.

Also, the Red Tails film had some good stuff - I know that their Medical items will be spot on - they used me as a technical advisor! Laughing IIRC, the tents that they had were either supplied by Jack at Pathfinder.

Cheers,
Ben.
