Modern Forces Living History Group has a core membership of dedicated members all joined by the same goal of recreating an accurate portrayal of a SOG Recon team. We have all been collecting for years and honing our tactical skills with MilSim airsoft in the UK and US. We welcome new members but you have to be prepared to work hard to get it right!

Paul Bishop: 1-0 (Pronounced One-Zero)

Paul has been collecting militaria since the age of 11 and has had a keen interest in History for the same time, the idea to create Modern Forces Living History group combines these two passions." The ability to explore history through living and re-enacting scenarios and events was a natural conclusion to my collecting"

Paul is our technical advisor on all things SOG and the founder of the group.

Jason Veall: One-One

Jason is one of the new members to the team. His love of all things military started way before he joined the army cadets but that was a long time ago now. After living & traveling the world with his other hobby, snowboarding, Jason had a chance meeting with an a old love again guns & military in the form of Airsoft.

“JV” as he is known to most loves nothing more than to fire his Airsoft gun at other players & looking cool at the same time. He has many load outs (you will see soon) but has gone full throttle into SOG & re-enacting. And not forgetting rocking his SOG load out when playing Airsoft.

“I’m learning slowly from One – Zero & the rest of the team & hope to pass the skills & passion we have as a team”

Peter Lloyd: One-Two

Peter is another new member to the team and like Jason and Paul has a keen interest in all things military and is an avid reader of military history, but surprisingly read little on the Vietnam war apart from the ever popular "Chickenhawk".  

After a chance meeting with Paul at this years War & Peace and being blown away by his SOG impression he has since been fascinated by the whole "SOG" thing and is busy reading anything and everything on the subject and like JV loves to rock his new SOG loadout whenever he can.

Peter has the owner of carrying the teams radio (it's heavy)
