Mr Thomas Visits

This afternoon Mr Thomas came to school to show us some of his war collection.  There were all sorts of interesting things for us to look at and try on.  We learned about different uniforms, helmets, gas masks, rifles and bayonets, webbing, hats, shells and bullets.  Some of the clothing was really heavy.  There were different types of helmets from WW1, WW2 and recent ones that were lighter.  It was very interesting to hear about why soldiers wore the different things during the wars.
