News from the North-West Frontier. Maj. Fredrick "Big-Red" MacGreggoor observes his beloved "Fore and Afts" mop up after another successful engagement with the Afghani's. To the uninitiated the Fore and Aft's also go by the name "Gloster's" (28th Gloucestershire Regt.) and are one of the Imperial protectors of the Raj! "God Save the Queen-Empress!"
"Big-Red" MacGreggoor is as brave as his name and never asks one of his men or officers to face danger unless he is in the lead. Neither does he broke lax training, as he works his men to a fine fight edge. In his words "Well trrainned, well feeddd  and fitt soljjiers have the best chance to suurvvee."
He has several scars from both blades and bullets to show for his fearless leadership. And has been known to risk death to rescue even the lowest ranked wounder or cut off soldier.
His men will never tell him to his face but their nickname for their beloved major is "Poppa Red" the office who cares for his men as if they were his own family.
Maj. Fredrick "Big-Red" MacGreggoor is a metal piece from the excellent Canadian Pulp Figures manufacturer.
