Issue 04 lands as the main event season kicks off, and it's a full one. Ranging from Vietnam-era kit to a deep dive into the German soldier, taking in war films, gallantry and the origins of the gun, it's a proper spread across the periods — exactly what "All Periods. One Magazine." is all about.

Inside this issue you'll find Vietnam Kit, War Films, What a Bloody Day, No Man's Land, Take the Leap, Event Dates, Gallantry, The German Soldier, News from the Editor and The Origins of the Gun, alongside event reviews, the latest news and regular favourites like The Rivet Corner and The Archives.

An A5 print magazine, Issue 04, June 2026, written by re-enactors, historians and enthusiasts, made to be kept on the shelf and returned to rather than binned. Published by Dispatches Magazine Publishing House Ltd.

All periods. One magazine.
