A Second World War U.S. Army radioman strides forward, pressing a telephone handset to his ear while a backpack field radio with its whip antenna rides on his shoulders. He wears a netted steel helmet, an olive field jacket and trousers bloused into laced boots and canvas gaiters.

He carries a metal radio or ammo box in his free hand and a web belt of pouches at his waist, caught mid-stride relaying a message under fire.

This dynamic figure suits a WWII infantry, command-post or beachhead diorama, a signals detachment scene, or a period skirmish wargaming table.
