D Day figures - Coming mid Oct from King and Country DD175 “Liberation! ” One of the more pleasant aspects of the Allied drive through France was the rapturous welcome “Tommies” and “Yanks” received when they liberated French towns and villages. Here this “Tom” is delighted to get an enthusiastic hug and a kiss from a pretty young French girl. DD241 “Walking Wounded” Even in the midst of victory there are still “casualties”...One GI helps his buddy to the nearest Aid Station. DD242 “Sitting Wounded” Another GI has caught a piece of shrapnell in his knee...He sits down to take a closer look before applying a field dressing. DD243 “Cheers!” This GI, during a lull in the battle, takes out his canteen to refresh himself... Is it water...or some of that fine French wine him and his buddies “liberated” the day before? DD244 “U.S. Army Movie Cameraman” A companion piece to our earlier released “Combat Photographer” (DD076). This new guy belongs to the U.S. Army’s Signal Corps who had hundreds of brave photographers and movie cameramen on the front line covering all aspects of the war and “Theatres of Operations.” Our guy is armed with a vintage Bell & Howell camera... and a .45. DD245 “Back Thataways” A walking GI indicates to the “Walking Wounded” (DD241) where the nearest Aid Station is. DD246 “Supplies Medic” This Medic is “humping” some “K Rations” to help feed the hungry wounded. AVAILABLE: Mid-October
