Victory Show British Airborne Display Success!

Chalk teamed up with other like minded individuals last weekend for the Victory Show 2011 to recreate the Oosterbeek perimeter which was set up outside Arnhem during the ill fated Market Garden operation of September 1944. The display was absolutely superb, everyone pulled together and the standards were extremely high. As a participant I'd like to say how great it was to work along side everyone involved, it was a great opportunity to meet new folk and catch up with old ones. If you weren't able to see it, then you really did miss out and shame on you. Fortunately we're already discussing next year's show so if you watch this space... Here are just a few pics of the event - we were so busy answering questions from visitors that I literally couldn't get any more photos! Clicking on the image will increase its size. Enjoy.

The New Batch of Rangercamp Denison Smocks

Chalk haven't seen one in the 'flesh' yet but we have been sent these images of the latest batch of Denison smocks from Richard at Rangercamp. You'll see that they now produce the 2nd pattern smock as well as the 1st pattern and a full zip 'officer's' version. Personally, I'm happy with my Rangercamp smocks (although I know some of you aren't too keen on the colours), I think they look particularly good once slightly weathered in and when I need another (as you do) I'll be sure to order one! Orders can be made through Rangercamp's UK agent Ellen Yao by emailing her for payment and delivery instructions at: springwestlake@googlemail.com
