The character is a female medic of the Soviet Red Army from the World War II period. She represents one of the hundreds of thousands of women who bravely served on the front lines for the Soviet Union, not a specific historical figure. Her role as a medic is crucial, as these women were responsible for providing first aid on the battlefield and evacuating the wounded, often under heavy fire.
The items displayed in the image are:
- The toy minifigure is highly detailed. She is shown wearing the standard-issue Gymnastyorka M1943 tunic and trousers in a khaki color. Her uniform has printed details showing dirt and wear, suggesting she is on active duty. She wears a brown belt with a shoulder strap (part of the Sam Browne belt system used by officers and some NCOs) which holds a prominent medical pouch marked with a red cross. She also has a red cross armband on her left sleeve, the international symbol for a medic. Her headpiece is a molded pilotka garrison cap, which was common for Soviet soldiers, and it features the Red Army’s red star emblem with a hammer and sickle.
- An accessory of the flag of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) is included. The flag is red and features its iconic symbol, the yellow hammer and sickle with a star above it, in the upper canton. It is mounted on a simple black flagpole.
