Edwin,

The israeli jackets (Dubon) were issued only to Army forces. Argentine Marines wore overalls and long jackets (parka). Find below a link to a great forum with lots of info about uniforms wore by both sides during the
war.

Hi Edwin
All the LVTP were them



Some uniforms were similar of the u.s. of the 1970, but not all.

Thanks. I will check this out. I am reading "War in the Falklands: The full story" The Sunday Times of London Insight Team, 1982. I also have Osprey #133 "Battle for the Falklands, (1) Land Forces. Plus a couple of dozen cut-out photos from the era cut out of magazines and the Stars and Stripes newspaper. I live in a very rural area and have to go into town for internet at the local library.

The information that indicates, is of own investigations and crosses of information between different historians and personnel that handle those vehicles, you can be calm that the information is real.

Hi Omar, what a magnificent build, particularly the figures and interior. Historically so accurate. Were the decals the kit supplied decals, aftermarket or a combination? And what paint colour did you use for the exterior?
