<br />
Indeed, due to professional and familial constraints it became increasingly difficult to dedicate the necessary time to a good functioning of Red Star Miniatures.<br />

When we started this adventure myself and Eric, it was really to see some of our dreams come true, to offer wargamers like ourselves novel and perfect figures from interesting periods without any coverage at the time in the market. We had always a very direct and friendly approach with our customers giving as much time as feasible to discuss some historical points or futur games... but recently it had really become difficult to keep it this way.<br />
<br />
So it is done ! The range goes to Steve Mynes from <a href="http://ageofgloryminiatures.wix.com/ageofglory" target="_blank"><span style="color: yellow;">Age Of Glory</span></a>, our current US distributor. During our partnership Steve has always been the perfect friendly guy, very honest and helpful. The Dien Bien Phu range will be his first own range and he is enthusiastic with it.<br />
<br />
Steve told us that he wanted to keep working with Griffin Moulds for the moulding of the figures as he know their professional qualities. Also, Empress Miniatures will probably continue to work with him for the distribution in the UK and the rest of Europe.<br />

We are definitively a little bit sad to say goodbye to our « baby », but we are also convinced to have found the good person to continue our work. For us it was really a very wonderful adventure and you, as customers, had a central part in it. For all you support, your positive comments and of course your many purchases of our figures, we would like to say a big THANKS ! It was also thanks to you that we have been able to bring to live one of the most beautiful 28mm range to date, one of the best of this fantastic sculptor Paul Hicks !<br />

Perhaps, in an indefinite future, we will try again, but, for the time being, let just say thanks to you all and perhaps see you at Crisis or Salute.<br />

Nicknamed « Alligator » the LVTs proved to be ideally suited to operations in Indochina, particularly in delta regions. They provided waterborne transport in deep water and good mobility on the murky soil of rice-paddies and riverbanks. They were formed into amphibious units comprised of machine-gun armed Crabs (M29 Weasel), LVT4 Alligator armed of machine-guns, recoilless gun, mortar and even 40mm Bofor gun and LVT(A)4 armed with a 75mm howitzer in open turret. Most of the vehicles also received add-on armor and shields as the basic armoring was very light. Nevertheless the protection from the flanks and rear remained poor.<br />

A LVT troop was normally constitued, under the command of a Captain, of 10 vehicles, with 1 for the command, 6 for transport, 2 LVT(A)4 with howitzer and 1 for recovery equipped with towing material. Each of the 6 transport vehicles was able to carry half a platoon, namely 15 men in addition to his crew of 6.<br />

<br />
Surrounded, the French forces, composed of a multitude of nationalities (French, various European in the Foreign Legion, Vietnamese, Thaï, North-african, African, ...) and commanded by General de Castries, resisted 57 days to massive offensives of the Vietnamese troops of General Giap. After 8 years of war and with the opening of the Geneva negotiations, the Vietminh were looking for a decisive victory.<br />
<br />
Deprived of any possibility of evacuation since the closure of the vital runway due to Vietminh artillery (15 March), the French continued to fight a losing battle, voluntary reinforcements jumping on the camp until the 6 May...<br />
<br />
The titanic efforts of the Vietminh to bring artillery in this impassable region and in establishing a network of trenches estimated to 400 kilometers, and their acceptance of horrific casualties, finally bring them their victory in this fateful day.<br />
<br />
The French counted 3,420 killed and missing and 11,721 prisoners nearly 5,000 of them injured. Four months of captivity will result in the dead of about 7,000 of them due to malnutrition and disease. Until today, the Vietminh losses remain a guess, but a total of around 20.000 seems probable.<br />
<br />
<i>They waited in the bowl</i><br />
<i>The latest Viet assault</i><br />
<i>In the mud, they dug their holes</i><br />
<i>Dien Bien Phu.</i><br />
<i>For months during the battle,</i><br />
<i>Under a gray storm of metal,</i><br />
<i>They thought they will resist</i><br />
<i>Dien Bien Phu.</i><br />
<i>Gabrielle</i><br />
<i>Fell this morning</i><br />
<i>Isabelle still holds,</i><br />
<i>They fight hand to hand,</i><br />
<i>Near the Command Post, eighteen years kids</i><br />
<i>Fall for France singing:</i><br />
<i>« Against the Viets, against the enemy »,</i><br />
<i>Wherever the fight beckons,</i><br />
<i>We hear only in the bowl,</i><br />
<i>The Viets cry of victory.</i><br />
<i>They held to the end.</i><br />
<i>Dien Bien Phu.</i><br />
<i>Today nobody cares</i><br />
<i>Of Dien Bien Phu.</i><br />
<i>But we remain proud of you.</i><br />
<i>Dien Bien Phu</i><br />

A very interesting movie on the Battle of Na San from October to December 1952.<br />
<br />
The apparent success of this action will encourage the French High Command to mount the Dien Bien Phu operation with the result that we know...Christianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15540053570270427913noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4678058905627023487.post-950918354324284542014-04-30T21:51:00.001+02:002014-04-30T21:51:21.517+02:00Vietminh uniforms and equipmentYou ask for them and I really would like to give you more informations about the uniforms, equipment and gear for our figures, especially for the Vietminh. Unfortunately I am desperately short of time to do all that I would like to do (heard that somewhere?).<br />
<br />
So I choose here to give you at least the raw material that I have collected for the making of the Vietminh figures so far.<br />
