Saw the trailer before Suicide Squad last night…this could be a great movie.







Sadly…I would bet I might have been the only person in the theater that knew what this was before the name flashed on the screen…yeah, WW2 History nerd here.

Looks decent. I'll see it.

Not sure what those odd non-Enfield rifles are, though... stand-ins for the Pattern '14? They look like dummy training rifles.

Also, too many canvas slings on the Enfields. Photos of the BEF show about a 50/50 mix of P'08 webbing and P'14 leather slings in use.

They taught us about it in school.  Of course, some of the teachers were there.
