Hi Vladi,

this second Figure rounds it up. Looking great together and with a little wall in front of them where the gunner is firering over this wall or behind an M15a1 jeep would be a very nice szene. Very nice are also the facial expression of both Figures. A great set and cool additon to the other Figures.

Greetings

Stefan
 
Good job Vladi, the poses are very natural. I think you are doing an excellent job with the "Tet" series of figures. Keep it up.

Fantastic figures as usually every sculpt could sculpt standing figure...but to realize your last nam figures poses should be a MASTER sculptor as you!!!!!!!!!!You spoken about a doc and a wounded buddy in Tet series figures....they will be? And have you same pictures of junior and big harold? i ordered from Sockelshop your lAST THREE FIGURES AND HELMETS.....!!!bYe.

Hi Vladi,

sounds very good what will be comming. So you cover all kind of Weapons in use by the Marines and allies. Great idea and alternation. Will you make all of them with flack jacket? I have seen Photos where Lurps in ERDL, Tiger stripe etc. with helmets, barets work together with the Marines to recapture Hue but wearing no body armor. That would be cool combination. Also ARVN soldiers play a very important role. Did you plan to make such Figures? By the way the cool boxart/comic art cover with these two soldiers on your accessory set with the helmets would be a cool set of Figures :).

Many Regards and an sun shining day,

Stefan
 
Hi Stefan!
You tellabout photos of Lurps in Tet battle?
Indeed,it`s very interesting.Do you have these photos?
I saw only Marines (99,9% wear flak jackets) and ARVN troops photos.Somebody else took part in Tet battle?
Danke!

Hi Vladi,

sehr gerne :) no Problem. Here is one link with great Photos frome Tet, Hue and Saigon Battles. It´s a hole treasure of Photos in Color:

These are more ARVN based but many of them show them without Body Armor. Ranger Company´s where used for counteroffensive. For example the 71st Infantry Detachment (AIRBORNE, Long Range Patrol), 199th Light Infantry Brigade. They fought more in the bush around for reconnaissance and as an emergency reaction task. So they could hold back more enemy troops.The battles in the citys where more by the Marines and ARVN troops. Also Corean and Australian Forces where involved.
Here is an Interesting link for the Historical Side of the Battle:

Here are some sad Data:
Killed / Wounded / Missing
US, Korea, Australia 1,536 / 7,764 /11
South Viet Nam 2,788 / 8,299 /587
North Viet Nam and Viet Cong 45,000 /not known / not known
Civilian 14,000 / 24,000 / 630,000 homeless

Hope this helps
