A British Tank Commander from the Second World War holds his hand to his ear, dressed in khaki overalls, a brown leather jerkin, and a black beret.
Just finished this British Tank Commander from Empress Miniatures. A lovely sculpt by Paul Hicks; the time just flew by while I was painting him this morning!

A handwritten letter saying: 'My Dear Little Sweetheart, I am sorry I couldn't come for your birthday but I am still on manoeuvers. I will come as soon as ever I can. I am sending you this little nightie I hope you like it and I am sending you this cake. I couldn't get any candles so ask mummy to get you some. I hope you are being a good girl and helping mummy. I think you are getting very clever I like your letters. Cheerio, tons of love Jeanne, from Daddy James xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
This letter was written by James Leslie Riley of South Darley, to his daughter, Jeanne, whilst he was serving during #WorldWarTwo, sending her birthday wishes and kisses. James tragically died as a prisoner of war during a mining accident whilst forcibly working in a Polish coal mine.
