Naked Army’s cold cast bronze figurine depicts a bren gunner typical of AIF soldiers who fought during the various campaigns in the Pacific theatre, mid to late WW2. Based on 2/5th Battalion bren gunner Ron Mackie, of Gulgong NSW, he wears jungle greens and cleated AB boots, US pattern gaitors, and pattern ‘37 web equipment.
Gaunt, grimy, and sporting a few days’ beard stubble, he retains a cheerful disposition despite the fatigue imposed by the harsh terrain and the grueling jungle conditions.
