Greetings all.
I'm working on a little one-figure scene, and need some advice on
details.
The figure I'm using is from the Airfix 1/32 US Marines set (Pacific
theater), and I really want to have him wearing the fatigue hat included
in the set, as opposed to the regular helmet.
The base he stands on is a 1.5 inch cube of wood, and I chose to
simulate thick mud on the surface for him to be slogging through.
To complete my little scenes I like to add a label telling some
particulars, such as location and year of the scene depicted.

Based on what I have in mind, can anyone give me some options for
location/year to use?
Also, if nothing seems appropriate for me to use the fatigue hat, I can
always resort to his helmet. I just want to use the hat because its
different.

As always, thank you for your input. I've always gotten great responses
to my inquiries. Take care.
