[Milsurplus] Toys on Parade

[Bruce MacMillan]

It looked like an event to give exposure (and some fun) to the public. 
It's quite impracticable to expect the public to come dressed in BD. 
It's like saying if you want to ride the "Pirates of the Caribbean" at 
Disneyland you have to be dressed as a pirate.

These guys do events where they are in full dress. Google " Tanks in 
Town " in Belgium or the War & Peace show.

On the topic of dress up I've heard remarks from military & ex-military 
people who resent civvies "playing soldier". One chap said he would 
prefer to see a person in civilian cloths rather than an aged, 
overweight, balding person in WW2 BD.

How many of us wear some matching theme clothes when attending a mil 
radio function?
