Early 10th Special Forces Group Trooper -
This is another tribute figure that I put together for
a great ex-SF Troop that is the heart and soul of my
SFA Chapter. This figure depicts the uni set and
equipment that would have been used in the early to
mid-1950's. The patches are printed on T-shirt
transfer paper and glued to his M1951 Field Jacket.
As you might notice, the unit patch is the post WWII
Airborne Command and the beret carries the old Trojan
Horse emblem taken from the 77th SFG(A), which
interestingly, was not authorized until 1962 when
President Kennedy officially recognized and lobbied
for the creation of Army Special Forces and Navy SEALs
