Through the second half of 1944, the M1943 field jacket replaced the M1941, which was used through a lot of the very early U.S. involvement in WWII; at the same time, double buckle boots were also introduced. A soldier would typically carry a canteen, ammo pouch, scope, poncho and more, with the typical infantry designed with a firearm like the M1 Garand, BAR M1918A2 or a M1A1 sub-machine gun. Officers wielded an M1 carbine. Scout groups would carry a handy talkie radio. This set recreats an infantry scout team of five, which will make an excellent task alone, and certainly will of course be properly used in a diorama or vignette.
