US Army Anti-Aircraft Artillery
All I know is the Colonel said New York City was under attack and to mobilize the whole regiment and move everyone into town right away.
The First Platoon, of the 237th Anti-Aircraft Gun Battery is on duty a few blocks from Times Square.
Listening devices are listening and the guns are at the ready.
Military Police have armored cars blocking the streets.
And a few machine guns are set up and ready.

Interesting vehicles - I have not seen them before.
impressive vehicles!! very rare, i love the houses!!!
Quantrilltoy the vehicles are part of what are called Dimestore Soldiers. They were sold from about 1920 to the very early 1970s. They are found on eBay and antique shops. A ratty, dented, one with some minor damage and missing a wheel might go for $10. Pristine ones can be very expensive. I buy crappy ones, strip the paint and repaint and give them more realistic wheels.

Hi Scrull, they are pretty cool I think. More later in the year as I am working on a few of them, but ran out of wheels. Probably wait until summer to cast more.
