In my last post I showed my 1st Infantry section of one of the companies from the 101st Airborne Division. In this follow up, I'm going to review my 2nd Infantry section.
These figures were all made from the plastic sprues in the Band of Brothers starter boxed set and they offer a very wide variety of poses, equipment and weapon options.
Like my 1st Section, this section is made up of 10 men, but the weapon options have been changed. At the far left is my NCO, armed with a Thompson Sub-Machine Gun. The two privates next to him are also armed with Thompson SMGs. The two privates at the far right are armed with M1 Garand Rifles.
Another four privates are armed with a combination of M1 Garand Rifles and M1 Carbines. At the far right is a Browning Automatic Rifle armed private. Although only on their TO&E as an optional weapon, paratroopers appreciated the heavier firepower a single soldier could lay down with the BAR.
I have omitted the choice to include an LMG team and added the BAR gunner instead. Of course I could have included both but I chose not to.
