Kit No. 5160 - £30.00 Scuplted by: Ken Brown 15 parts, Sculpted by Ken Brown The Royal Marines performed a variety of roles in the Royal Navy. In battle they fought as sharpshooters but, unlike the French, not from the mast tops for fear of fire. They doubled as gun crews manning the various guns and provided the captain with a guard at his cabin door. They were the first line of defence of the ship and its officers in the dreaded event of mutiny. |
