Corgi Forward March Figures US59011 Figure US Rangers, D-Day June 6th 1944, 6-Piece Set US Rangers played a major part in special forces operations once America had come into World War II in December 1941 after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It quickly became clear to those American Army officers based in Great Britain that they did not have a unit like the British commandos. Major-General Lucien Truscott, US Army Liaison with the British General Staff, submitted proposals to General George Marshall in May 1942 which encouraged the formation of such a unit. From this, the US Rangers were formed-the American equivalent of the British commandos. These figures are made to go with the existing range of World War II Corgi vehicles. Corgi Forward March Figures The Corgi "Forward March" range presents highly-detailed, ready-made spin-cast figures in 1:32(54mm) and 1:50(36mm) scale. Over the last 50 years Corgi has earned a reputation as one of the finest producers of highly detailed, die-cast, historically accurate vehicle and aircraft models. These same values and principles have now been applied to a brand new range of hand-painted, spin-cast metal miniature figurines - the FORWARD MARCH collection. Our same commitment to quality and authenticity shines through in every figure - from aviators to World War II infantry and elite forces, these figures capture the essence of the period down to the buttons on the tunics and the look of confidence and resignation in their detailed faces! Many of these figures are the perfect compliment to existing Corgi military and aviation collections - what better way to bring additional life to your existing collection than by creating your own custom-made vignette with vehicles and figures.
