Behind the Lines: Filthy Thirteen Pathfinder Squad

This set combines the aggressive combat profile of the 101st Airborne's demolition specialists with the high-stakes reality of casualties behind enemy lines. The figures accurately depict the specialized gear of the 'Filthy Thirteen,' including the M1942 reinforced jump suit and the iconic Mohawk hairstyle. The set highlights the unit's versatility, showing members engaging in suppressive fire with Thompson submachine guns while others perform a desperate extraction of a wounded comrade. These soldiers were tasked with jumping into the darkness to destroy key bridges over the Douve River, a mission that required both technical demolition skills and brutal small-unit combat proficiency.\n\nThis high-detail resin set includes 5 figures in a mix of active combat and rescue poses. The physical inventory consists of two paratroopers with Mohawk haircuts armed with Thompson submachine guns, one standing squad leader signaling directions, and a 2-man rescue vignette featuring a standing paratrooper drawing his sidearm while dragging a fallen comrade in a prone position.
