Critics Review

“Very highly recommended.”

Henri’s incredibly exhaustive research has resulted in definitive illustrated guides to GI gear ‘so that the sacrifice of those who fought for the liberation of Europe is not forgotten.’ Readers will be rewarded with a mother lode of photos and data vital for historians, militaria collectors, model makers, and toy soldier and model figure enthusiasts. * Toy Soldier Collector *These books will appeal to a range of interests in the World War 2 US Army. This spectrum will include museum curators, reenactors, and collectors of various themes such as insignia, uniforms etc. The author has done a great service and he should be highly commended for his efforts. Just saying “well done you have produced two brilliant books” is a massive understatement. * Military Archive Research *An incredible collection of photos… The amount of time it must have taken to assemble and photograph everything is likewise incalculable. * The Historical Miniatures Gaming Society 26/10/2022 *First class reference …packed with fantastic detail. * Military Model Scene *
