Medical side:
1. We have to have that medical 'ambulance jeep, shooting about the streets dropping off men at makeshift aid posts!
2. 2 man Stretcher team! No medical lot would be complete without it!
3. Surgeon tending to wounded airborne trooper on makeshift operating table. There was a special airborne modified table which had fold away legs that when opened could have a stretcher placed on top and locked into position so that medical staff could operate!
4. Medical orderlies running around, gathering supplies, patching up the walking wounded etc.
Combat:
5. Recce Jeep team in action - firing front twin Vickers MG at the opposing forces!
6. The polsen anti aircraft gun which was driven around arnhem towed at the back of a jeep firing at targets (German patrols and vehicles) at lowest trajectory and then driving off to pick off more targets.
7. Upturned jeep which has been hit by mortar fire. A dead airborne soldier lying nearby and amother man taking cover behind jeep. (A BRIDGE TOO FAR ANYONE?)
8. 17lb gun and crew
9. Special modified field tractor to pull 17pb gun
10. Flamethrower team on the move towards the pillbox - crouching and creeping
Pre Jump:
11. Paras putting on equipment
12. Paras checking weapons/equipment
13. Glider Infantry loading/unloading jeeps and trailers
14. Spare jeep trailer with supplies inside.
15. Pre Jump paras standing/sitting talking
Personalities:
16. Brigadier Hicks
17. Lambert
18. Hackett
19. German officer in Number Scout car leading attack on bridge
20. Field Marshall Model
21. RAF pilot who died trying to drop supplies off to troops at Hartenstein
Others:
22. The small field pack company bulldozer - only one was landed in Oosterbeek
23. 7th KOSB commanding officer
Just a few suggestions but I'd like to say a huge thank you to Andy for his already released sets as they are brilliant!
