interested to see how you approach this, John.....got this for Christmas!
Might want to rethink the title.....I may be wrong, but the 82nd Airborne were withdrawn on 13th July 1944 and were never in Saint Lo....in fact no airborne units were.
The kit is based on a photo of a para in Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte, if thats any use!
of course it's a model and you welcome to name it as you wish!
