Response to USMC in Nam
Does anyone know where I can get some 1/35th, 54mm figures (does not matter if metal, resin or plastic)of dead or wounded VC or NVA that I can add to my battle for Hue diorama? I already have some North Vietnam flags and communist propoganda posters and thought some dead or wounded VC / NVA would be a nice touch.

My father's nephew (my cousin)was KIA during TET from either a grenade or an RPG. I can still remember his funeral (I was about 9 at the time), the coffin had a glass cover over the body and you could see that there was not much left to him from the chest down. Still have a shell casing from the honor guard at his burial. He was only in Nam for about 6 months and had a daughter born that he never saw, how sad.
