The Silver Soldiers Collection from Silver Statues revives the images of some of the most popular Green Army Men played with by generations of American children. The first toy soldiers widely available were made from wood and began to appear in the United States in the 1930s. Most of the soldiers depicted in those days were the famous Doughboys of the United States Army and Marine Corps from World War I. Plastic army men debuted after World War II, and though other wars have been fought in the subsequent decades, World War II-era soldiers remain the most popular depictions for Green Army Men.

Design

The 4 oz Silver Antique Finish Silver Soldiers Arty Red Leg Statue depicts the canon loader in a howitzer squadron. Arty carries a large round for the M38 Howitzer which provides heavy firepower, suppressive capabilities, and the potential to take down hardened targets. It is Artys job to ensure that the howitzer always has rounds to fire down range and he does it well.

History

The Arty Red Leg character is based on the members of artillery units in the United States Military. While members of the various branches have their own distinctive dress uniforms, there are subtle variations among units that help distinguish members of different units. The term red leg comes from the red piping often used on the dress pants of the members of artillery units.
