Having begun his military career during the First World War, he steadily advanced through the ranks of the British Army and entered WWII as commander of the 3rd Division of the British Expeditionary Force in France.\u003cbr id='\"isPasted\"'\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the autumn of 1942, Montgomery took command of British forces in North Africa and soon achieved a decisive victory over the famous Desert Fox German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel. By December 1943, Montgomery was commanding the 21st Army Group and had become the Commander of Allied ground forces in Europe. Naturally, the success of Montgomerys operations owed much to the officers and soldiers of his staff. Among the vehicles he used as a mobile command post was a specially modified army Leyland Retriever truck. Built on the standard chassis, it featured a purpose-built superstructure that served as a field office, divided into two rooms. The front, smaller room housed a sanitary compartment, while the larger rear room was fitted with cabinets for clothing and equipment, a writing desk with table lamps, and a large sofa. Montgomery used this mobile field office throughout the European campaign until the end of the war in spring 1945.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial id='\"isPasted\"' font-weight:=\"\" color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style='\"box-sizing:' inherit color: rgb\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" font-weight:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eFigures of Field Marshal Montgomery, his staff, and his mobile office based on a Leyland Retriever truck chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eDetailed reproduction of British World War II uniforms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eHighly detailed interior of Montgomery's mobile office, including desk, sofa, shelves, cabinets, and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eIncludes decals featuring portraits of German commanders as seen on the walls of Montgomery's office\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eThe set allows for a realistic diorama of Montgomery's headquarters operations during the final stages of World War II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial font-weight:=\"\" color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style='\"box-sizing:' inherit color: rgb\u003eModel Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" font-weight:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eScale: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e1:35\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eNumber of Parts: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e467\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eLength: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e202 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eHeight:\u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e 91 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eIncludes detailed assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eHighly detailed sprues with high accuracy made from quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eBox size: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e410 x 260 x 55 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55431856587086,"sku":"HCO-ICM35604","price":69.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/1741\/0894\/files\/c0523071-70b6-4eb8-9c38-1b0722d0e4a8.jpg?v=1772810485","url":"https:\/\/www.makeitbuildit.co.uk\/products\/icm-montgomerys-mobile-office-with-staff-4-figures","provider":"Make It Build It","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
