Alamo Scouts

[John Long]

Does anyone remember if there is a figure available of the above? It seems to me that Calvin Tan sculpted one for Dogtag in 120mm. Miniature Alliance's website hasn't been updated in some time.

Hi John,

try www.historexagents.co.uk they have a Dogtag U.S. Marie Pacific War listed. I dont know if this is the one you mean.

No, that's not it. The Alamo Scouts were not Marines. I remember seeing some pictures somewhere- Missing Links maybe. It may not have ever made it to production.

John, Do you have the Army Ranger book from Osprey's Elite series? I can scan the plate that has an Alamo scout. Your 54mm work is very good. Have you thought about building your own?~Gary

Yeah Gary, I have that one. I also found a terrific website with many photos. This is a group that has had little written about it until recently. 106 missions behind Japanese lines without a loss. It seems the real predecessor to SpecOps groups such as SEALs. I'm considering doing my own, but I don't want to copy something already available.
