A tribute to the United States Marine Corps., and their elite Special Operations Forces.  Those who perform demanding, hazardous military missions into hostile regions of the world in defense of America, her citizens and interests.  Those who preserve our freedoms.

a special thanks to Sgt. Sean Healy, U.S.M.C., who so graciously advised me in my endeavors to present this figure authentically.  His guidance is greatly appreciated.  My thanks to Staff Sgt. Tim White as well.  These brave marines asked that they be given the "honor" of naming this piece.  They chose Freedom.

The M16 short barreled rifle, the Berretta side arm, knife, water bottle, flashlight and his radios are all sculpted from polymer clay.  The radios have real electrical wiring.  He is fully dressed for a covert mission, including, stockings, jersey camouflage T-shirt and boxer briefs.  His outer clothing and fanny pack are constructed from military camouflage uniforms, exactly as those worn by our brave soldiers.  His body harness is constructed of lightweight military green synthetic fabric and military belt webbing.  His boots, side arm holster, knife scabbard and ammunition pouch are leather.  His throat radio is copied from provided photographs, with close attention from Sgt. Healy.  His stand is constructed of wood over which layer after layer of fine blasting sand was glued. 

Consultants:  Sgt. Sean Healy, U.S.M.C., and Staff Sgt. Tim. White, U. S. M. C..
