WW2 or Vietnam ? Colt 1911 ?

Doesn't look like Vietnam.

The leggings look like WWII. The pistol might be a Hi Power.

I agree. I don't think it ever got cold enough in Vietnam for all those clothes. Not even in the central highlands.

And these are action figures. Forgot which website I originally saw them on.

This is a B&W version of a series of vignettes produced by a transgendered guy. A FB poster made up a meme using the pic stating that these guys
were more heroic than Caitlin Jenner. He copped a backlash on the internet... the blogger guy... not Bruce Jenner... I mean Caitlin Jenner...

Very reminiscent of the Forrest Gump scene with 'LT Dan' in Vietnam.

The amount of misogyny aimed at a struggling lady like Caitlin Jenner is pretty disappointing.

Michael tells me they are indeed scale models, very clever

Yes, 1/6 scale action figures probably made by a company called Dragon. My son has a load of these figures. The detail in the equipment and uniforms is stunning but they are fragile. Not half as much fun as good old GI Joe, or Action Man as he was known in the UK.
