Uncle Jasper: The Military Records

In my quest to find out more about my Uncle Jasper's wartime service, a TMP member helps me locate surviving military records.

Hey fellows! Years ago I did a 10mm Pendraken project I then sold off to raise money for charity. One of their sculpts was a running greatcoat fellow I applied a Soviet flag to. Looked AWESOME! This year one of my projects is Chain of Command Plastic Soldier Company 1/72 Russians. Bought two boxes and one of heavy infantry as well as a set of three T34s. Long story short, whether in a boxed set by another model maker, plastic or metal, any idea where I can source a running 20mm/1/72 flag bearer miniature? And Commissars with megaphones in the same scale? If anyone has a half dozen for trade happy to investigate that too, otherwise just a "point in the right direction" will be equally welcome. Thanks guys! Stevo

Specifically, this is the look I'd like to achieve… link But can't seem to find anyone who sells THQ miniatures online… And Commissar-wise, the choices seem pretty restrictive too. Can anyone offer some guidance? Thanks!

Check CPModels, Elhiem and newest plastic Pegasus.

The standard bearer looks like a modified rifleman, trimmed down and re-equipped with a pole & flag….. From Battlefield Miniatures, link STR21 Command – Commissars with pistol and megaphone, standard bearer in greatcoat Friend or Foe Miniatures also do an NKVD pack with 'Officer & guards'….but no pics. Maybe check RCW figure ranges for standard bearer alternatives…..

Great links guys! SOV4 I'm ordering in a week or so from CP, as I will STR21 from Battlefield once the owner replies with a photo of the code. Would CP take into consideration sending me just the banner bearers as I've ZERO use for the other three figures? The plastics I may pick up further down the line, thanks all for the links and guidance Stevo
