10th Mechanized Officers and NCOs


Polish 10th Mechanized Officers and NCOs

Our first new pack for the Polish 10th Mechanized is Officers and NCOs, sculpted by Steve Saleh.  Two of the figures are wearing the characteristic 'Stahlhelm' that the Polish army had in stores from German and Austrian Great War stocks.  The other two are wearing the 10th Mechanized black beret that was issued to all ranks. Two different beret styles were in use at the time hostilities broke out in 1939.

Three of these leaders of Poland's only undefeated unit are carrying the 9mm ViS wz.35 pistol in addition to their kb wz.98a rifle.
