Roll on with "Big Red One"
Sent into North Africa as part of Operation Torch in early 1943, the US First Infantry Division would subsequently participate in the invasion of Sicily, the Normandy landings, and eventually the invasion of Germany itself. The division was nearly continuously embroiled in combat for two years, suffering nearly 20,000 casualties. In the end, it wasn't the M1 Garand, or the BAR, or the bazooka that won the war. It was the grim resolve with which the infantry fought on. The kit features fifty infantry figures in various poses.
