***** Corgi Model Collection - Military Vehicles *****

Following the D-Day landings, the immense Allied military might that had got a foothold in mainland Europe began the task of pushing the encamped German forces back first through France, Holland and Belgium, and then eventually into Germany itself. It is a measure of the Allied strength that even while major airborne and amphibious operations were taking place at the end of a long supply line that stretched back to Normandy.

Other major battles, including the famous Battle of the Bulge, were being planned and fought throughout 1944 and early 1945. British, US, Canadian and Polish forces were involved in a series of actions, all of which brought them steadily closer to the German frontier and the mighty River Rhine.

The M16 was the standard US Army light anti-aircraft vehicle userd following the Normandy invasion with every armoured division having an AAA Weapons Company with eight M16s. These units were often used to protect key sites from enemy air attack. By the end of the war, the general absence of the Luftwaffe meant that these M16s could be used in a ground support role, where they earned the nickname \"meat-choppers\".

This hard to find 1:50 model comes with a numbered Limited Edition Certificate, printed at the back of World War II Battle of the Bulge booklet. This modelhas never been out of the box except for taking the pictures.

Scale model for adult collectors, not suitable for children under 14 years of age. Some models may contain fine detailed points or edges.
