WW2 1/56th scale U.S. Infantry Platoon Headquarters.

 This post covers the U.S. Infantry Platoon Headquarters squad for my tiny 28mm U.S. battlegroup. The commander is a Lieutenant supported by a Platoon Sergeant, a radio Op and a medic, the rest carry an assortment of weapons including Garand rifles, carbines and a BAR rifle.

The Lieutenant has a stripe on the back of his helmet, the medic has the usual red cross arm bands and the sergeant has stripes.  

All Warlord Games Bolt Action minis in cold weather gear, based on 25mm diameter plastic bases with homemade grass tufts.

Colours are various Olive Drab greens, Khaki Drill and Khaki Drab for the uniforms, Khaki for the webbing and burnt Umber mixed with Khaki for the Greatcoats. Steel helmets are dark uniform green mixed with black.

Next will be a supporting U.S. mortar team.

All the Best,

Peter.
