1st Infantry U.S. WWII Soldiers (24 Figures)

1st Infantry U.S. WWII Soldiers – 24 Figure Set

The Big Red One — America's most battle-hardened WWII division.

The 1st Infantry Division — 'The Big Red One' — was America's most combat-experienced division of World War II, landing in North Africa in November 1942 before fighting through Sicily and then storming Omaha Beach on D-Day June 6, 1944. The men of the 1st Infantry waded ashore under withering German fire at the bloodiest sector of the Normandy landings, and their courage that morning helped turn the tide of the entire battle.

After breaking out from Normandy, the Big Red One drove through France, fought in the Hürtgen Forest — one of the longest and costliest battles in U.S. Army history — and helped repel the German offensive in the Battle of the Bulge before pushing into Germany itself. The division's shoulder patch, a simple red numeral '1,' became one of the most recognized symbols in American military history.
