U.S. ARMY INFANTRY OFFICER, 1944
(Retail US$14.99)
Whatever may be said about
the role of armor and aircraft in World War II, it
remains indisputable that the real brunt of the
fighting was borne by the infantryman. In the front
line, there was little visible distinction between
officers and men. Here officers were forced by
circumstances to lead by example, not by command,
and casualties were correspondingly heavy; it was
calculated that the life expectancy of a second
lieutenant under fire was just under two
minutes.
These are unpainted
and unassembled metal hobby kits.
Unless otherwise noted, these kits are in the
International 54mm
Collectors Scale. Standing figurines are approx.
2-1/2" - 3" tall.
