I needed some more figures for my 6 day war diorama. As Vietnam was during the same era, I thought they'd work well. I contacted Pat Gallagher to see what he thought. After us both looking around, we found an image of some IDF soldiers of the time in soft bucket hats....and with that we were off to the races!!!! Pat removed any camo on the figures and altered all of the black web belts, straps etc to desert tan. He also added some backpacks to figure and painted an IDF medic logo on the back of the medic. I think he did a great job and unless you're a true rivet counter (some of the weapons would not have been in Israel) they work great!
