At the annual Draycott Fayre, we found a gentleman in full World War One uniform, explaining the function of a forward-position observation dugout. It was a fascinating, fear-inducing insight.
The poor man was incredibly hot in his heavy uniform & cap - but refused to take even the jacket off ... "out of respect".
I've seen WWII re-enactors here, but not one from the first go around. Yes, I can imagine the uniform would be quite hot.
