The latest addition to my downstairs crew of 1/6 figures;

 

Coxswain Benjamin F. Baker of Dennis, MA was awarded the Medal of Honor for actions during the Battle of Cienfuegos, Cuba in 1898. He is only only Cape Codder to have received the Medal of Honor.

 

Many thanks to USMF member Sigsaye for his expert assistance on this one!

Nice tribute. What is the source of the uniform items? I've never seen a Navy flat hat in 1/6th scale.

I bashed the hat out of a DID USMC white dress cover. Removed the bill, dyed it navy blue, and printed out a cap tally on my ink jet printer.
