Dear Fellow Military Enthusiast,
“Justice has been done.” When we heard
those words from the president on May 1, we
all celebrated.
Today, because of the operation that resulted
in the death of Osama bin Laden, there is
renewed interest in U.S. Navy SEALs, covert
nighttime operations, and hi-tech military equipment and weaponry. But, as many of you know,
“covert operations” are nothing new.
On the cover of this catalog, you’ll see the
U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne Division on June 7,
1944, the day after the D-Day landing at
Normandy. Like the Navy SEALs in May, 2011,
these men came in from above on a nighttime
descent behind enemy lines. You can find products covering them and other paratroopers
beneath this letter and on page 34.
Just a few years after World War II, a new
type of covert warfare dominated – this time not
in the sky but below the sea. On page 46, you’ll
find outstanding coverage of Cold War submarines and secret espionage missions that U.S.
subs carried out against the Soviet Union.
Stalking the Red Bear, the true story of one such
submarine, is even available at half price!
And there’s more. From the Vietnam War’s
“tunnel rats” (page 48) to fiction’s ultimate
covert operator, James Bond (see $7.95 DVDs
NEW!
on page 60), all the great subjects are here, covering both “special” and “regular” forces who
serve from the darkest depths of the sea to near
the edge of space.
The courage displayed by the Navy SEALs
on May 1 is something that all Americans
should be proud of, but people like you and I
didn’t need it to renew our interest in the military. Our interest has always been there – it’s
why we create Military Issue and why you have
been so generous in supporting our efforts with
your purchases. So take a look inside to find
what you’d like today then call us toll free at
800-989-1945, visit us online at
MilitaryIssue.com, or mail in your order form
in the envelope provided. We look forward to
serving you.
Thank you,
Greg Herrick
P.S. If you aren’t yet collecting military
miniatures, now’s the time to start. Having
reached an amazing level of detail and realism,
they are a giant leap beyond the “toy soldiers”
of days gone by. Best of all, we’ve got more
than 50 new releases inside! Call 800-989-1945

– War of 1812 Figures and Models –
In early 1814, it was clear that Napoleon would soon be defeated in Europe and, as a result, seasoned British soldiers would be redeployed to Canada to take part in the ongoing War of 1812. Eager to win a victory in Canada
before the British reinforcements arrived, the U.S. Army invaded Canada along the Niagara River and defeated the
British in the July 5, 1814, Battle of Chippawa – an action that proved American regular units could hold their own
against the British.
Now, you can create your own 1/32 scale diorama of that battle! These hand painted, metal figures are finely
detailed and historically accurate right down to the tall shako caps (with cords and regimental plates), uniforms,
white buff baldrics, equipment, and rifles with bayonets while the metal field guns feature a “brass” barrel with a hollow-end bore and a detailed carriage with free-rolling, spoked wheels. Standing figures are approximately 2¼" tall.
