Major Schmitt has been ordered to personally deliver and supervise the installation of the still secret optical gun sight for all PAK 43 A/A emplacements in his sector'. Major Schmitt is a figment of the imagination but the change of gun sight is based on fact.

Superb diorama utilising Tamiya and Italeri figures, two Italeri Pak 43's, an Italeri Kubelwagen, Tamiya Field Kitchen and other sundries.

Approximate size 14" x 9 1/2" (350mm x 240mm).

Stroud in 1807 produced recruits for the Napoleonic War. Two officers, Heazle and Delmont, recruiting in the town argued over a ladies honour. A site on the edge of town was agreed to settle the dispute. One short paced and fired his gun before his colleague could turn to fire. The bullet passes through Delmont's back and, after being carried to his lodgings in a wheelbarrow, he died a few days later. Heazle was charged with murder but never brought to court. It was one of last duels in which a man was killed in Britain. Delmont is buried under a flat stone in St. Lawrence's churchyard - a few yards from the site that has taken his name.
