So Matt you were correct, I've finished my platoon. My US armoured infantry platoon, circa 1943/43 is kinda done.
The full force is 5 M3A1 Half tracks (Warlord) each armed with a .50 cal HMG, the gunners made from the bits box
Infantry section, 8 men, inc BAR and rifle grenade, and a bazooka.
Another 1. All the infantry are from the Parry's plastic box (except 2 I had knocking about). For North Africa there were bazookas but nobody had training so rifle grenades were used and 37mm AT gun. The 37mm AT gun was a permanent feature throughout the war even though it was obsolete vs tanks. Need to buy one.
Command platoon with officer and sniper
Macine gun section with 2 .30 cal
Mortar section. Only 8 figs in this section so 37mm AT will join these
Couple more shots
Really liked painting these. Will need more troops to make our usual sized battle, 20-24 units (currently 17) and have found some Shermans to add to mix. Next stop North Africa, or Italy
