“Retreat, hell!” A Korean War Diorama (1 Viewer)

[tmanthegreat]

“Retreat, hell! We're not retreating; we're advancing in a different direction…"

— US Marine Corps General Oliver P. Smith, C/O of the 1st Marine Division, Battle of Chosin Reservoir, November, 1950

A diorama featuring Thomas Gunn’s excellent Korean War USMC figures and a modified M26 Pershing tank from The Collectors Showcase. My scene was inspired by a famous photograph from the battle depicting a column of Marines moving with an M46 Patton tank.
