Does anyone make British Airborne stretcher bearers in 28mm? Or bare-headed basic Brits? replacing heads is beyond me I'm afraid. |

For bare headed Brits, you could try the plastic ones from Warlord. They come with separate helmets, so you can construct them bareheaded or with helmets as you wish. And since the heads are also separate, you could even replace some of them with bare heads from other plastic sets. As for stretcher bearers, I have no idea. |

Sorry, I was n't very clear; I was wondering if there might be British stretcher-bearer figures without helmets…or , come to think of it, stretcher bearers just in shirts which could be painted in plain ole khaki regardless of what nationality they are marketed as. |

The British stretcher bearers that leap to mind are the Blacktree ones: link Now, if a head swap is *really* beyond your abilities (and it's the easiest conversion there is), you may be able to clip or file the rim off the mkII helmet and then stick a bunch of camo on. That might come pretty close to an airborne helmet? By the way, that pack is confusingly described. In fact it has 2 bearers, the stretcher case and a medic. |
