carnageandcarnality asked: I know you have an impressive resource of photos at your disposal, and you're a kick-ass history major, so I feel you may be able to answer this question:
Do you know what a paratrooper's stateside uniform during the Vietnam war would look like? I am getting different opinions from reliable sources, and was wondering if you might know.

I’m actually not sure what their stateside uniforms looked like during the Vietnam War. However I do know there was two different sets, one pattern left over from Korea and then one for Vietnam, which I’m pretty sure was altered as the war progressed. I only know what their combat outfit was.

Sorry :(

Anonymous asked: Would you rather live in the future or that past?

That’s a tough question for me. I love the romantic qualities that are given to the 40s by looking back at it, but there are some strong negatives about those times that we don’t have - or at least not as strongly. I love computers and technology so I’m not sure I could give something like the internet up but if given the chance I’d like the experience that past instead of live in it.

Quick, someone get me a TARDIS.

drtenenbaum asked: so my prom is coming up, and instead of dressing like i'm going to a quinceañera or out to da club, i want to make a classy, stylish 1940's dress to wear. i thought that you would be the best person to ask for help, so could you maybe post some fabulous women's fashion of the 40's?

Oh, I did that for my prom back in high school! I had a 1945 cocktail dress :D

I sure can miss, I’ll post some for you
