In this section you will find the information needed to recreate the WWII British PT Uniform. This is a required uniform for the Wiltshire Regiment of Arizona Reenactment Group
PT Uniform
​
PT Was an important part of life in the British Army. As such every soldier was issued a PT uniform. The Wiltshire Regiment of Arizona will not be expecting every memebr to pass a PT test, nor do PT at events. However the PT uniform is a nice thing to invest in for relaxing in. After a day of hard fighting in wool uniforms the ability to downgrade to something more confortable is a welcome relief.
PT Shirt
​
The British Army had several styles of white shirt.
​
The first style being a common white t-shirt, these can be found at most big box stores in 3 packs.
​
The other style seen is a white t-shirt style with a button up collar.
​
Either style is acceptable, as well as being worn for PT these shirts are also worn under the collarless undershirt
​
PT Shorts
​
The British Army PT Shorts were a simple blue style short with an elastic waistband, or draw string.
​
They were made of a khaki style material.
​
Occasionally pictures are seen of soldiers wearing a khaki colored PT Short.
​
These shorts can be purchased from What Price Glory
​
PT Shoes / Plimsolls
​
The British Army issues its soldiers a brown cnavas and rubber shoe called a Plimsoll.
​
These shoes were worn for PT, when relaxing in camp, or on campaign when not at the front.
​
In rare occasions they would be worn on patrol or by commandos
​
After a day of reenacting in the Ammo boots, these shoes bring welcome relief to relax in when at camp
​
These shoes can be purchased from What Price Glory
