US Army Infantry (Winter) Platoon (12 Miniatures)

As the US Army advanced through France towards Germany, they would be faced with not only fierce German resistance, but also increasingly harsh weather. The winter of 1944-45 was a cold one in north-west Europe, and the GIs who would find themselves in desperate combat during the Battle of the Bulge in the forests of the Ardennes would discover that the weather was almost as much of a foe as the enemy troops. Digging into the frozen ground became incredibly difficult, and the men were grateful for every piece of winter clothing they could get their hands on.

US forces are fantastically simple to paint, and these men in their long winter greatcoats are no exception. With only a few colours, you can quickly and easily bring your collection to life on the tabletop, and the awesome detail on these plastic sprues provides a fantastic opportunity to really show off your painting skills!
