Love your style Vaux. Beautiful painting so far. Will you use this figure with the other tripod figure to compliment it? Best of luck with the completion of this one. Regards, SG

Stunning painting Vaux!

Sorry to be a nerd, but it would be historically inacurate to use the current title. The 101st did not wear the US flag patch in Normandy, only the 82nd. I recommend this site for any research regarding the 101st in Normandy:

[Joe55]

Yup, Jon is correct.

[Cristiane]

Wowww, it's fantastic.

 

[Vaux]

Where have you been all this time Jon!!!

Indeed it is a major mistake, I'm no expert in this unit and guide me through countless photos of reenactors and drawings if flag patch comes, Young bust also brings that patch!

I hope it does not affect much on the quality of the figure, as it has no solution at this time.

Jon Thanks for the appreciation.

Greetings friends and I'm glad that I still like.

[Tubby-Nuts-REMOVED]

Vaux! .. there is some evidence of the arm patches being used! possibly a personal thing ?..

 

[Vaux]

Thanks Tubby for your interest and help, but I think the photos are not correct.

The first is a reenactor and notice the white van in the background.
The second photo is from Holland, when wearing the green uniform and if carried patch.

Anyway I appreciate your help.

Thanks to everyone!

 

[Tubby-Nuts-REMOVED]

LOL! ...... Did not see the van !! ... that's a give away! .. but it have been an interesting thought of them going into battle, in a Transit van!
