The list below will equip you for displays, tactical battles and overnight encampment. The most important items to purchase are your Boots (YOU CANNOT DO A PARACHUTE INFANTRY IMPRESSION WITHOUT JUMP BOOTS!) Uniform, Overseas cap and Helmet. No one is really expected to purchase everything at once. All we ask is every time you attend an event you show up with something new until you own everything in the required item listing.
The Group does have some loaner gear (helmets, web belts, canteens, etc.) so items can be borrowed for events with prior notification. However your own gear should be purchased as soon as possible as newer members will require this loaner gear until they are fully kitted.
Please ensure that you ask your unit commander before purchasing gear to ensure that everything you buy is correct.
