Imex WWII 1/72nd scale Germans converted to George Washington Brigade American ex-patriots who joined the German Waffen SS. This German bazooka soldier has been given a US bazooka, and an M-1 rifle too.

I also replaced the head from the German with an Imex Easy Company US Army paratrooper soldier and the rifle from the same source.


Here the panzerfaust soldier has been given a Valiant US Army pack and a US rifle.


A bit hard to see, but the US Army paratrooper in dark green if firing a Tommy gun. His arm, gun and left hand have been transferred to the German soldier, to give the German a Thompson. He also sports a back pack from Valiant.




Another view of the Thompson conversion. Try clicking on the picture for the larger version and a better view. Just as Russians who came over to the Germans often wore Russian uniforms and carried Russian equipment with a mixture of German gear, these Americans are carrying and wearing a mixture of German and American gear and weapons.
