On the workbench - Indian Infantry platoon

A completed Indian army platoon for the 8th army Strelets Indian infantry WW2. Eventually I intend that I will have one platoon of infantry and various support options such as engineers, recon patrols to support other British units. I really think that the multi-nation nature of the 8th Army in N Africa  and   Italy gives lots of interesting modelling opportunities.  The whole platoon  The HQ shelter behind  wall  I like the many prone poses in the set firing and throwing grenades  and grouped them together in one section  A couple of Sten guns  Tommy guns and Lee Enfield - a Bren team in front and on the end of the section  3 sections and the HQ  Maharata Regiment Fix Bayonets - “Bol Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj ki Jai”  Bren section firing from the hip Plattoon HQ with RT operator and Indian Junior officer
