The Royal Winnipeg Rifles. 28mm WW2 miniatures.

These figures represent a platoon of the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, part of the 3rd Canadian Infantry division. They formed the right wing of the Canadian forces that landed on Juno beach, on D Day.
The figures are mainly Renegade Miniatures with a few  Crusader Miniatures.
Each ten man section is made up of an NCO with a Sten gun, a Bren gun team and seven rifle men.
Each platoon was supported by a 2" mortar and a Piat anti-tank team.
The troops display the black and white shoulder patch of the Royal Winnipeg Rifles and the grey rectangular patch of the 3rd Division.

      Hi thanks for your comment. The figures are from Renegade miniature WW2 British range. As you are probably in Canada I am sure there are miniature manufacturers there that will supply Allied figures.
