Guys in Uniform 13 - Highlander

Guys in Uniform Studio - Frank

This cheeky chappy looks an unlikely porn star, but he featured in one of the 'Guys in Uniform' Magazines published in the 70s. As you can see, he was called Frank - but so were a good many others of the models for this studio! (see below.) Unlike the Royale Studio, the model identities were shrouded in mystery. Supposedly they were real servicemen and Frank with his tattoos (it looks like he's got the Parachute Regiment badge on his arm) and neat haircut could easily be one, he's certainly not a professional model.

As usual, these pictures feature vintage British military clothing, which naturally has to be removed in short order - except for belt and boots. Sadly, I don't have any pictures of Frank actually wearing the shorts properly, though I imagine they did exist (any help out there?) These self-conscious, half dressed poses don't quite work, although what Frank reveals is interesting enough.

In the next sequence, Frank begins to put on the thick leather apron-like bodysuit (seen here previously in Guys in Uniform - 6, worn by another 'Frank'!) This garment must have been the prized possession of the 'Guys in Uniform' Studio, it features in many of their pictures and would easily qualify as a sleazy entry for my 'men sharing clothes' series. It would have cost a great deal more than the Army surplus uniforms and skimpy athletic shorts which were GIU's usual fare, so I suppose they wanted to make good use of it. In this picture Frank number 1 doesn't seem to be very excited by it, but of course 'flaccid' was the only publishable cock-state at this time - and even that was risky.

 

The numerous straps and appendages on this suit will appeal to extreme bondage enthusiasts, but Frank seems to be having a bit of trouble with them. His tall, lean frame looks good in these shots. The juxtaposition of military and fetish 'uniforms' is strangely atmospheric. Note that his boots look well polished, in true military style.

 

The fight to put it on continues, giving us a nice glimpse of Frank's backside. This is the best picture of the group. The strap diving between his buns makes you want to try the gear on yourself! Frank has donned an authentic Army beret for this part of the shoot, and he wears it like a true pro. It's a hat that can easily make a man look foolish (dare I say silly?) but young servicemen can usually be relied upon to adjust their headgear so it looks rakish.

Frank takes a rest. I've included these less interesting, closing shots for completeness and to give a decent look at the detailing of the bodysuit. The model has been given the 'Highlander' label in this picture, but I can't identify Frank's cap badge as belonging to any of the Highland Regiments (or the Parachute Regiment for that matter). Perhaps some military buff can help me out here!

In this final image, Frank is fully buttoned up but suddenly looks like a freckle faced youth, which is a bit incongruous. These pictures are all scanned from magazines, so the quality it not as good as the originals would have been. This sequence would have probably led on to a 'group' fetish scenario, but I've not been able to track it down so far.
