US Army Infantry Squad in Winter Clothing from Warlord Games

Bolt Action: US Army Infantry Squad in Winter Clothing

When America entered World War II in late December 1941, its soldiers were largely well-equipped and supplied. However, by 1944, when American troops advanced on the European mainland, they, like most armies of the time, were ill-prepared for the harsh European winter. There was a general shortage of coats and wool gloves to protect against the biting cold and provide effective camouflage. The practical-minded Americans modified their winter uniforms by quickly supplying their soldiers with additional clothing. Cleverly improvised snowsuits were often made directly from looted bed linens from liberated/captured cities.

The box contains the following 10 metal models:
- 1 officer with SMG
- 2 soldiers with BARs
- 7 soldiers with rifles/carbines

The miniatures need to be assembled and painted.
