Last Stand: 101st Pathfinder Rescue

Pathfinders operated in small, elite teams and often found themselves in desperate close-quarters firefights while attempting to secure landing zones for the main airborne force. Because they jumped into total darkness and often deep behind enemy lines, every member of the team had to be prepared for rapid casualty evacuation while simultaneously engaging the enemy. This set captures the raw intensity of such an encounter, with a paratrooper drawing his sidearm to defend a fallen comrade. The figures are detailed with the specialized M1942 jump suit and the distinctively netted M1 helmet common to the Screaming Eagles during the Normandy drop.\n\nThis high-drama resin vignette includes 2 figures in a connected combat pose. The physical inventory consists of one standing paratrooper in a dynamic protective stance, aiming a Colt M1911 sidearm while gripping the harness of a prone, wounded comrade to drag him to safety.
