Some professional pics taken a few years ago at a photoshoot at Fort Borstal, Rochester UK (it’s now a paintball/Airsoft site so may go back there be day). The original idea was to simulate an SF team rescuing captured friendlies, involving pyro and about 35-40 people...however only 4 of us turned up, the pyro guy pulled out the night before at 1am and my mate Stewie twisted his knee about 5 mins before we started...? So we just did a basic ‘patrol’ ‘shoot.
All the kit is mine, the SA80 and AK are Stewie’s.
The M40 field protective mask was one of various protective masks used by the United States Armed Forces and its allies to protect from field concentrations of chemical and biological agents, along with radiological fallout particles. It is not effective in an oxygen deficient environment or against ammonia.
The M40 was the result of a program in the 1980s to develop a successor to the M17-series protective masks which had been in service with the US armed forces since 1959. The M40 was to be a return to conventional protective mask design with an external side-mounted filter canister, rather than the internal cheek filters of the M17, which were awkward to change, especially in a contaminated environment. The final prototype, the XM40, was approved for service and then designated the M40.
