    Here is the rest of the playset. Unlike what the box says it is not complete. It is missing the soldiers and the truck. I showed this to some experts and it is circa 1955. It came with two colors of GIs but not enemy troops. The Battleground set added the Germans a few years later.
    The nice feature of the box is that it has the original dividers. These are almost always missing. The baggies are not original but come in handy for playset collectors.
    Last is the barracks building which is for Company A. That would be about 150 men. One of the accessories is a pair of trash cans which is a tad mundane. There are also stacks of M1 Garand rifles along with a crate full of them.
    There is a Carry-All version of this called Boot Camp. Have not run into that one in person yet.
