JJCLUB-2016A – Captain Randall Bond – Wheels Across the Desert
The early use of motor vehicles in desert warfare produced some of the most unusual military operations of the early 20th century.
JJCLUB-2016A – Captain Randall Bond belongs to John Jenkins Designs' Wheels Across the Desert theme, representing an officer within this fascinating world of motorised operations across remote and difficult terrain.
Desert campaigning placed extraordinary demands on both men and machines. Heat, sand, vast distances and limited water made navigation and mechanical reliability just as important as conventional battlefield considerations.
Motor vehicles nevertheless offered speed and range that traditional mounted forces could not always match. Cars and light vehicles could be used for reconnaissance, communication, raiding and the rapid movement of personnel across otherwise enormous distances.
Captain Randall Bond makes a natural focal point around desert vehicles and supporting figures. Position him beside a stationary vehicle as though planning the next move, or at the centre of a temporary desert halt.
Available through The Military Workshop – an atmospheric John Jenkins Designs Collectors' Club figure capturing the adventurous early era of motorised desert warfare.
