Description
U.S. tank crew in WWII used a uniform essentially the same as their infantry counterparts, although a tanker’s helmet and warm tanker’s jacket with fitted sleeves were designed to be used by crews in their cramped vehicle interiors. Goggles were a vital form of protection from dust, and many tank crew also used hoods and overall-style tanker’s trousers to keep the cold at bay. This adaptable set depicts a typical crew which would have been attached to a tank in Europe after the Normandy landins. It is perfect to use with Tamiya WWII U.S. tank models such as the M4A3E8 Sherman « Easy Eight » (European Theater). This figures set includes four full body figures and two torso figures in highly realistic poses, Set also includes 3 types of clear goggle parts (2 of each), parts to authentically recreate accessories such as a M3A1 submachine gun, 2 different types of ammunition boxes and decals depicting unit and rank insignia.
