Well I suppose it gives a whole new meaning to the term Poilu…. |

This is the regiment I'm volunteering for. |

JJ is correct ! Additionally, of course, the ladies seem
to be armed with Werder rifles (Bavarian ?) but it is
admittedly difficult to determine, given the lack of
detail in the illo…and the distraction… |

I'd like to see the living embodiment of them… |

It figures--two women ready for action, and only one coq between them! |

Coopman – Gillette introduced the first safety razor marketed to women in 1915. |

Of course, now I need to know where I can get appropriate figures for the 5th Rgt, they are clearly overlooked entirely at the moment! |

At least there are no stripper boots or high heels:) |

Coopman – Gillette introduced the first safety razor marketed to women in 1915. It must be 1916…their legs are shaved… |

Surely someone is making them in 25mm. Love the boots and the caps. |
| von Schwartz | 15 Jul 2019 5:18 p.m. PST |
I knew oberlindes would be there for the footwear |
| von Schwartz | 21 Aug 2019 9:44 a.m. PST |
Was this before they invented shaving? |

I want to join that reenactment group. :) |

The position displayed is not recommended for live firing, as flash from the percussion cap may set the firer's hair aflame. |
