>>11398719Just to complete the picture we have the soldiers from the other set, with the Japanese being punished for their anachronistic armaments though having to battle American soldiers from an entirely different century. These GIs are the same as included to fight the Taliban in other sets, seems the toy company didn't feel a need to create another pose set and just went with the Americans they'd already made.
In closing I want to highlight that superb Rising Sun banner accessory and note that it was also in the Japan vs China set, the latter having the current Chinese flag as theirs.
