This vignette is based on a true story about a patrol that was warned of a Japanese ambush.  I rushed to the dealer hall to make sure I could get a set.  I painted them this week.  I couldn&#8217;t remember my US Marine &#8220;recipe,&#8221; so they turned out a little more tan than green, but uniforms fade like crazy in the hot sun.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"475\" src=\"http:\/\/bucksurdu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_7740.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9859\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bucksurdu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_7740.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/bucksurdu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_7740-300x139.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/bucksurdu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/IMG_7740-768x356.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Sally 4th television and movie characters.
