One thing I'm curious about, "Kits by Remdul." Are there going to be specific 101st spawnable kits? Or was this referring to the equipment the troopers are carrying?

Also, fantastic title for the update, EU :) Very clever!
I believe that the 'kits' part refers for things like shovels and pouches.  You have to thank Ts4EVER for the title.

The soldier furthest to the right has something next to his left foot. Looks like an explosive of some sort.

Anyway, great update. Good work Pointblank, Zero and Remdul. Will these models be in the upcoming release?

Absolutely not a Hawkins grenade.

There already are American bulge airborne models, on Bastogne for instance. And about not knowing that face: You disgust me ;)

Seems like a big patch.  ;)

Is there also a Bulge skin for the 101st,
or will it be the same as Normandy?
Also Bulge skin for 82nd, who were trucked to Bastogne and the Bulge at the same time I hope.

Though, I wonder: why don't any of them have mohawks?!

101st had plenty who figured they were gonna die and shaved their heads to a mohawk on D-day.

Also, does this mean moar paratrooper maps? (St. Mere Eglise drop I imagine, since Husky and Market Garden would require new models. As for Operation Varsity, no clue.)

When Remdul made the us soldier model, he posed him like the soldier on the medal of honor cover as a sort of "tribute" to a great game. I wanted to do the same here so i posed him like Maj. Winters in this semi well-known photo.

thanks to these fapulicious models, im gonna play the hell outta maps featuring them. I love 101st, great job.

love everything, the faces (esp. the one who's carrying the .30), the use of Musette bags, grenades and hawkin's, rolled sleeves, Technician ranks finally making appearance... it's all the little details that make this such an amazing work to look at.

huge props to pointblank, remdul & zero;)

Wonderful gentlemen! There are just a few things I'd like to remark though: there appears to be a general lack of ammopouches, the captain's could be shoved on his back but the carbineguy/mortarman is a different story.

And two instances of genuine nitpicking: I miss knifes worn on lower right legs and the odd helmet with netting, camouflage and field dressing stuck on it, or did only the 82nd wore these like this?

anyway they're lovely but I thought you guys said you wouldn't invest time and effort to create playermodels for individual units? ;)
