The highly anticipated Perry Miniatures US1 WWII U.S. Infantry 1942-45 are in stock and available from Brookhurst Hobbies!
This box contains enough plastic figures to represent a full-strength platoon plus HQ. In 1942, a company comprised of three platoons, each of three sections of twelve men, at full strength, plus an HQ of five men. There was also a Weapons Platoon comprising of two .30 Browning machineguns (included) and three 60mm mortars (not included but available in our metal range). Each section included a corporal and five Garand-armed riflemen (although early on, there was a rifleman equipped with a Springfield rifle and grenade-launcher), two Garand armed scouts, two Garand armed assistants to the BAR, as well as the BAR gunner, plus a sergeant often armed with a Garand but occasionally equipped with a carbine or Thompson SMG.
