Take a look at Dragon's US Marines (NOT the Modern US Marines). I think the kit is 3007...has the Fritz style helmet and one guy has an SMAW on the cover art. From their 1:35 Modern Elite Forces series, it was originally released in 1990 and may fit what you need. Supposed to be a really good set of figures. For $8.99 at Sprue Brothers, I'd probably take a chance with them.

They released kit number 35153 as well, early Tamiya figure set.

Desert Scheme which included a couple of extra figures,
A radio op and a guy Firing the Dragon ATM, not a bad set
really.

That was the other set I was thinking of... with the Dragon ATGM.

Another set I found in my stash is Tamiya 89772,
comes with a couple of tank crew figures and 4 figures
by ICM, they might be useful Jerry? You also get a load of M60 tank ammo and stowage.

Found the Tamiya/ICM very helpful for my Grenada projects. Recommended.
