A World War II American navy lookout scanning the horizon through a pair of binoculars raised to his eyes. He wears a light-blue work shirt and rolled-cuff dungarees with a white round sailor cap, a sidearm pouch on his belt and heavy boots, caught in an alert, leaning-forward stance.

The working-dress uniform and the raised binoculars make this an active, story-telling figure, well suited to a ship's watch or deck station rather than a static parade pose.

A great character for a 1940s naval or shipboard diorama, a harbor or dockside scene on a model-railroad layout, or a wargaming table needing observation and support crew.
