Question for those who do WWII reenactment (specifically, US paratrooper impressions)

I've been incredibly interested in doing an impression of an average 82nd Airborne Division paratrooper, and in order to cut down on costs, I've decided not to buy most fieldgear unless it "completes the look", so to the speak.
So, I have one question: If I plan to get the M1923 cartridge belt, do I necessarily need to get the suspenders? Most guides seem to suggest that suspenders are necessary if you are wearing a cartridge belt of any kind, but it looks like you can tighten the cartridge belt just enough around your waist so that it doesn't fall off.
