| I put this figure together as a donation to the Los Angeles Chapter of the 11th Airborne Division Association. The 11th was heavy involved with the invasion of the Phillipines, particularly, the battles to take Corregador. They also conducted the "Los Banos" prison camp raid. Very similar in scope to the movie "The Great Raid", elements of the 11th planned and coordinated a combined air drop and amphibious assualt on a Japanese prison camp where the captured personnel were in danger of being executed. |
| A super looking paratrooper old buddy! I definitely wouldn't mind having him in my own collection. It is sure a fitting tribute to the 11th AB here and I'm sure those guys were glad to have him. Special thanks for sending this great looking project in and sharing him with us. - GL |
