As Greek soldiers you can model them moving forwards and fighting, leaving them as French it would be too difficult to model them accurately running away...

Following on from Gerald's comments, is it possible to leave the UNINFORMED comments (source is no doubt comic books) outside. They're offensive, pointless and suggest that the author should invest in some historical references.

There are a lot of French modelers on this site, who DON'T want to read this garbage every time the subject comes up....

Let's see, the British Army fled the continent entirely at a place called Dunkirk, leaving the French to fight alone, and didn't return to France for four years--and only then with American, Canadian, Polish, and yes, French troops, to support them. The pot shouldn't call the kettle black.
Childish insults aside, the French were facing virtually the entire German Army (over 200 divisions) in 1940. The Allies faced only sixty divisions in 1944, because two thirds of the German Army was in Russia.

And can we add this as another uninformed comment --
"Let's see, the British Army fled the continent entirely at a place called Dunkirk, leaving the French to fight alone, and didn't return to France for four years--and only then with American, Canadian, Polish, and yes, French troops, to support them. The pot shouldn't call the kettle black."

That's just as offensive to the many brave men of the BEF (my late father was one of them) who were evacuated from Dunkirk after facing an onslaught for which the British Army was ill-equipped, while flanked by unreliable allies equally unsuited to the task at hand.

Tamiya's French Infantry figures look pretty poor, as does the new German Infantry set for the same time period -- wooden, unimaginative, poor anatomy, clunky detailing...
