General George C. Marshall These skillfully crafted 1:32 scale pewter sculptures reflect the pride and with which American, British and German soldiers of WWII fought for their countries. This collection features prominent heroes and leaders from one of our country's most significant wars including infantry soldiers and notable wartime leaders. Each figure is handcrafted with appropriate uniform and weaponry. The figures stand approximately 2.5-inches high. With the outbreak of W.W. II, Marshall became the principle military advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He attended all of the major war time conferences with the President and was promoted to General of the Army (5 stars) in December 1944. After the war, he was sent by President Truman to China to try to bring peace between the Nationalists and Communist forces. Although this effort failed, he was appointed Secretary of State and began his efforts for economic reconstruction of Europe. This program was eventually known as the Marshall Plan and succeeded in establishing America's diplomatic reputation. |
