...Michael, that is a great piece of family history!<br /><br />For the Spanish, I am using Old Glory figures as well.

I don't know a lot about him, he was long, long dead when I was born, and my dad didn't say much about him, but he served in the SAW and then in the Philippines during the Moro Rebellion. When that wasn't enough, he went to Montreal in 1914 and joined the Canadian Army, serving four years in the trenches and settling in Canada thereafter. So, it's very cool for me to see these figs. What figures have you found for their opponents?<br />Cheers,<br />MichaelMad Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410143683610813671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-6581300080160439842014-08-25T10:24:20.263-07:002014-08-25T10:24:20.263-07:00Thanks, Dean!

That's a good one!<br /><br />I measured the SAW US infantry and they come in at about 26mm (maybe a little less) from sole of shoe to eye.
