Hi,
While I was in Chicago at the OTSN show, I spoke to many people who did not know and / or were unaware of Belgium's massive involvement and bravery at the start of WW1. Everyone I spoke to enjoyed learning / chatting about this relatively unknown army and I enjoyed talking about them and what they achieved as, these are big parts of the reasons why my first figures for Empire were Belgian's. How they held off the German army, how they changed the outcome for France by defending so well, how they flooded large parts of their country to defend it and, how they never surrendered Belgium to the invading forces.
For anyone else who may be interested or maybe , have not seen our Belgian figures, I have posted some YouTube clips below. We start with a video from Empire but then move on to some actual footage and documentary films.
The full range is available from treefrog Treasures http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/c-3624-world-war-i.aspx or direct from myself http://www.empiremm.co.uk/epages/es782307.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/es782307/Categories/WW1
As always, I hope you enjoy and get something out of this post. Best regards, Malcolm. :salute::
