Imperial Japanese Army cyclists 1941-45

I bought this set while still in Japan. I've painted them with Tamiya IJA Green.
Each stand has four cyclists. One LMG and Three Rifles.
They are now ready to take on the British or Canadians in Hong Kong or Singapore.

Italian Campaign: Fighting in the hills above the Sangro River, Italy,

1st Canadian Division with additional New Zealand and Indian troops begin to form up.

A German Paratroop battalion with an Italian Alpini battalion hold a line of trenches above the Sangro River.

Canadian Recce elements push forward taking heavy fire and casualties, but are able to radio in important information.

One Churchill brews up, but the onslaught begins.
