Searching for 1/72 scale modern US Navy sailor figures.

[seadude]

I guess this would be right forum for this.?
I'm searching for 1/72 scale modern US Navy sailor figures. Preferably in white dress uniforms like you see manning the rails in some pictures.
If none can be found, then are there any 3D printable files someplace where modern US Navy sailor figures can be printed?
I need at least 47 figures for a future Iowa battleship memorial model I have in mind.

Just to cover your bases I'd post this in General Modelling Topics as well if I was you.

I've done some searching but can't find anything to suit.

1/72 is difficult enough but dress uniform on parade is even more difficult, especially for USN sailors.

Sorry!

Thanks for the advice. I know I'm hitting a brick wall with this subject. 
But I'm hoping that maybe somewhere I'll eventually find something.

I did find some modern US Navy figures in 1/72 but they are printed by Shapeways, cost $30 for 15 figures, wearing the digi camo and are not standing to attention.

Do also look at 1/87 figures.

You might be better off having someone design a few figures in appropriate poses and having a batch printed off. Goodness knows what that might cost.

I've seen just about all the figures that person makes and NOTHING will work for my needs. I'm not buying from him.

other places that may be worth a look, ( but it will be a slog , sorry) are model train / rail road shops, manufacturers, and wargames figure supplyers  1:72 is 15-20mm depending on the companys scale ( wargames figurs mesure from base of foot to eye level,  its due to hats, helms, helmets shakos and headgear, please dont ask more than that its someting that can drive you to distraction)   id offer sugestions but im afraid that i dont operate in either of the  2 areas, so am at rather a loss for more.
