William Britain and artist James Dietz are proud to combine their efforts and introduce our first World War II "Art of War" series set. The first James Dietz painting selected was "Seize the day". The figures from the painting portray activity that took place June 6, 1944, as soldiers of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment reorganized the defence of Ste. Mere Eglise, one of the first French towns liberated on D-Day. Like the Civil War "Art of War" series, these figures will be produced for only one year. The rugged Normandy countryside proved a difficult obstacle for the men of the 505th. Collectors
