Steve. Beg your pardon. I like your figures and that little scene very much. I want only give some hints for the next time. I thought that the boy was wearing a kind of jacket as you can see on the following photo


On your original photo he is wearing a "normal" jacket for kids from that time. The part the soldier wearing around their shoulders were only for training and that was a separate part.


And your photo with the chinstrap over the cover is the first photo I had seen. So I have learned something new. Beg your pardon again

Thank You Ulrich I can see why in the Drawings etc with Reference to the Ribbon it was the 1915 Blouse/Tunic I was referring to without Button holes, The Training Soldiers Vest is interesting, and any advice on mistakes or Criticism also! is most welcome my Friend
