Nice educational video! My Great Grandfather was in the Marines in WWII. He never spoke of the war to me cause I was too young at the time but one day while snooping around in the basement I found his old uniform and all kinds of other really cool things. My favorite was the mortar round he had down there that was just for display after he rendered it safe. Anyways, after I found all that stuff I told him I found it and then he started telling me some of his non-graphic stories which some were sad and others funny as all hell. He passed when I was about 14 years old and about 90% of his old things he left for me in his will cause I was really the only one in the family that was and still am very much so into those things and all things educational from the Civil War all the way to present day Afghanistan war. Thanks for posting this, it took me back to all of those awesome memories with/of him.
You know what pisses me off? The guy filming this, after awhile, is giving responses like "yeah, uh huh, really". It's like, he's lucky he actually attended something like that. If I were there, it would be my heaven first, since I love WW1, and second, I'd ask many pertinent questions.
Just to say the inference that the Small Box Respirator was developed directly from the kind of breathing apparatus used in coal mines is incorrect. The facepiece was developed from the German Gumimask and the filter as a smaller version of that used with the Large Box Respirator. It was bulkier than the German mask but gave better protection, it was designed as a combat mask and the reason the Americans adopted it was because it offered the best protection of any combat respirator on the battlefield in 1917-18.
Just in case you dint know that p17 enfield is actually an old home guard gun. Many where given to the home guard buy the us in ww2. The way you can tell this is a home guard gun is the red paint near the barrel. As it fired the 306 round it had a red ring painted on it. So a old home guard privet with poor eye site wouldn't force a 303 round in to the camber and brake it.
I have recently entered collecting WW1 usmc. I have a 1914 USMC pea green eagle snap canteen cover seen at 3:49 and a 1908 round canteen seen at 2:15. This video was very helpful!
Where did you get the round canteen? I have a collection but most of it I didn’t buy. I have a ww2 granatwerfer 36 practice round. Which is by far the most rare item I own and I haven’t even seen pictures of it the only way I figured it out was a translated German documents from ww2. Most of my items were my grandpas before he passed. Let me know if you want to hear more of my collection.
Didn't read the time before I pressed play but wow, no pauses or hesitations Just great info delivered at a good pace Good stuff loved it Hope tinfoil has his own channel! Many thanks U.K.
Excellent and very informative description of all the items throughout the war. and the canteen cup still looks pretty much exactly like whats issued today.
00:45 I am guessing that is why marines guard embassies around the globe to this day. I am an army vet, don't know much about marine history. Thanks for the video.
wrong 1911 pistol for that time period. The gun shown was a 1911A1 which has several noticeable differences from the gun that would have been issued in WW1
Awesome video... A major war that changed the face of the earth, that is basically skimmed over in most high schools. Imagine being a kid wearing and using these items in a trench for months. Often in harsh weather.... Thanks for the video. Truly educational and makes one thankful for what we have today.
Sorry, I should specify. I'm referring to the mannequin in the grey Army-type uniform. The cartridge belt on it has two small pockets on it next to the fastener. What type of belt is that, and what do those pockets hold?
During WW1 and WW2, the same cartridge belt was used up until the Korean war. In WW1 each pouch held 5 rifle rounds on a stripper clip to charge the rifle. During WW2 it held one 8 round enbloc clip for the M1 Garand rifle.
My dad was in world war 1. I remembered seeing some of that equipment but my mom got rid of equipment. My dad was in trans corp division. I am doing family history. Cannot find anything. I do have a copy of his discharge papers. Is there anywhere I can call or website? Thanks
William Tucker LOL ENJOY it friend welcome to the wonderful world of MILITARIA collecting etc you live and breathe it !!! WHEN you are a VETERAN like me it's an INCURABLE disease /VIRUS and we spend our money and ENTIRE LIFETIME dedicated to it!!!! ok started collecting as a BOY in BELFAST after HMF service 15 yrs ! I'm 60 yrs this year and NIL intent to SLOW down no question TIN F HAT mega collection and knowledgeable guy!! thanks on behalf of ALL Militaria collecters. for youre interest and RESPECT !!
The canteen is the same as I was issued in 1964 same with mess lit. The Marines wore Army uniforms because the color of their Pre-War uniforms was close in color to the German Feldgrau
Nice display. However, Sergeant Quick signalled to the USS Dolphin to cease fire at Cusco Well because another company of Marines had crested the hill and was now in the line of fire from the Dolphin. The Dolphin was the only ship in the area that day. Quick was exposed to gun fire from the Spanish in the valley as he signalled.
The military still does not use the m1911 45 call. pistol. When I was in the army we used the beretta 9mm which i think now they're have retired this year. Apprently Sig got the new contract. As well the 38 single/double action pistol is not the same as a "Wyatt Erp" gun. What a dip shit.

I’m calling BS on the Bolo knife amputations. Certainly it could have happened anomalously but per any type of SOP? Meh. Gonna have to look it up now. Nonetheless GREAT video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 👍🏼
This guy doesn't know his butt from a hole in the ground! The 5th and 6th Marine regiments were part of the 4th Brigade of the US Army 2d Infantry Division. The patch he is referring to is a 2nd Infantry Division Patch; as well as the painted 2d Infantry Division Insignia on the helmet. It is The only division ever formed on foreign soil, and the only division to ever have a brigade of Marines, or to be commanded by Marine Corps Generals Doyen, and Lejeuene! This guy needs to bone up on BOTH Army and Marine Corps history, and especially 2d Infantry Division History! I should know, I served in the 2d Infantry division on Korea's DMZ from Nov 79 to March 81 with 1st Bn, 9th Infantry (MANCHU) . Keep Up The Fire!!
Your videos are awesome, great information, but a little constructive comment, Please stop the stupid little comments you make, very annoying, Let the gear owner speak without the adlib, i know you mean well, but the silly comments have to stop, thanks, hope your not too offended.
Would like to contact tin foil hat man the guy who is talking about this marine gear, I have a diary of a Marine from early 1917 till a day before entering the trenches in March of 1918 .
Thats a Chinese made replica cartridge belt on the table that the bayonets on bud seen my share of them, tell by the make and color. Bought one just like it on E bay 34.99. Your wrong on so many things bud, the P-17 was sent to france to be used in combat , the US had more M1917 rifles than '03 Springfields. SGT. York had a M1917 the day he did the heroic fight that got him the Medal of Honor, this guy is wrong on so many things. The 1911 is not WW1 correct WW1 Colts were blued not parkerized, this guys full of .......... WWII 1911A1's were parkerized all thought some left overs from WW1 were in use. As far as the WW1 Campain medal, those "clasps" are like battle stars like we use today He said, "for what you did". I am a military historian this guy is what we hate.
yeah, I spotted and heard so much wrong info I started yelling at my computer , hoping this idiot would hear me. The ribbons on the last uniform are repo's WW1 ribbons were wider than todays .

This channel is great. As a Marine trying to assemble a WW1 dress blue outfit, this is invaluable information.

@@TristenTheArgonian I agree it so sad that they are all gone
shut the fuck up
I wish the guy filming this would shut up and let the man explaining the items do all the talking. I hate it when he kept interrupting him.
jk22222sd bruh it’s been 5 years but most of it is repro
He's go to stop calling the new service revolver a "cowboy gun." It's really not.
MrMorganQuinn nigga chill he’s just giving comparison
MrMorganQuinn Bruh... c'mon
Ya the locals weren't hopped up on coke it was just pure will and a little hash
@27:16 that is not a WW1 1911, that is the 1911A1, was not introduced until 1927
The canteen is a model 1902 and many national guard units had those as well as the 1908 mess cup.
Same design on buttons used on pre WWI coat are still used in the dress green alphas today. Marines have long lasting traditions. Semper Fi
The narrator knows what he's talking about. Very impressed.
Cpl. Gadway USMC thanks CPL G very much impressed by your YT Info clips just watched no: of today information mega !!! UK HMF veteran thanks!

What a very nice detailed description! Chapeu for these interviews..
My grandpa owns a Winchester Model 1897. It's a pretty slick gun.
Ian Babcock my dad was going to get one for 200 bucks but my mom was like hell no
I feel like everyone’s Grandapa has one
in boy scout i was pore kid so i used the gaters legings 1980s thay work black berry vines are hell on the legs
Very nice display, well done.
Excellent and very informative description of all the items throughout the war. and the canteen cup still looks pretty much exactly like whats issued today.
23:34 that guy in the back just got PTSD
Great stuff, only one thing, that was a 1911a1 pistol which did not see service in ww1.
It's not even a 1911a1, it's some sort of modern government model. Springfield Armory or something
That’s where your wrong kiddo
Great video, fascinating stuff!
00:45 I am guessing that is why marines guard embassies around the globe to this day. I am an army vet, don't know much about marine history. Thanks for the video.

Very interesting! Great historical review of USMC uniforms! Thank you.
anyone know where to get reproduction for stuff around 1900 leather
10:13
That haversack pack on that manikins back 😵💫
that 1911 isnt ww1 vintage.
It will be in WW2
Got to keep your sausage safe put it in a sausage tin.
harry joe LoL indeed.
During the pre war period the tunic is wrong in terms of it being a summer service p1912 tunic it would be a wool version of it instead
I have a question: What type of cartridge belt is the mannequin wearing? Those two smaller pockets on it are kinda funky and weird. What are they for?
If you are referring to the first mannequin that's a first aid pouch. It contained a large dressing for gunshot, and shrapnel wounds.
Sorry, I should specify. I'm referring to the mannequin in the grey Army-type uniform. The cartridge belt on it has two small pockets on it next to the fastener. What type of belt is that, and what do those pockets hold?
spare pistol ammo
And for rifle ammo
During WW1 and WW2, the same cartridge belt was used up until the Korean war. In WW1 each pouch held 5 rifle rounds on a stripper clip to charge the rifle. During WW2 it held one 8 round enbloc clip for the M1 Garand rifle.
Brilliant. I love the history.

Cool! Where was this?
The canteen is the same as I was issued in 1964 same with mess lit. The Marines wore Army uniforms because the color of their Pre-War uniforms was close in color to the German Feldgrau
yank1776 no bro they wore army ones during the late war period due to the marines signature poor funding
Great vid
Nice display. However, Sergeant Quick signalled to the USS Dolphin to cease fire at Cusco Well because another company of Marines had crested the hill and was now in the line of fire from the Dolphin.

y no Winchester model 12m??? ;-;
the m1911 isn't used anymore. they got rid of that in like the late 70s. they used the berretta m9 mm. now it's that or a glock 19
no the late 80s but officer's still use it
Not anymore they just went to the Glock 19
Some divisions use them still
"exactly"
OMG 2:40 it looks like one of those very rare SEAMLESS 1910 CANTEENS
Ok...uhha....ok...yeah....ok....
The metal banging for gas is dubbed “metal on metal”
I got to show my dad this. He would find this interesting.
NRA museum would show the very first run .45 pistols. As a kid I used to play with lots of that sort of equipment
No way would a gas mask filter tin stop a bullet or shrapnel
A piece of shrapnel usually goes 550-1200 FPS the cloth and steel could stop it
Wyatt Earp used a Single Action Army in 45 Long Colt. That New Service is NO WHERE CLOSE to that!. I think you just wanted to sound cool on video.
Didn't know the Enfield was re chambered in 30-06
that model 1917 was.
the p14 is the rifle you are thinking of although the 1917 was based off the p14.
The military still does not use the m1911 45 call. pistol. When I was in the army we used the beretta 9mm which i think now they're have retired this year. Apprently Sig got the new contract. As well the 38 single/double action pistol is not the same as a "Wyatt Erp" gun. What a dip shit.
Supposedly some special forces units use them
Well he has a 1-6 marines patch with ye wrong insignia
The president can send any branch for 30 days or less.
