  • During World War II the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS raised a number of mountain infantry units, identified by the edelweiss insignia worn on their sleeves and caps. These divisions were lightly equipped, with much of the transport provided by mules. Mountain infantry participated in many campaigns, including Operations Weserübung, Silver Fox, Platinum Fox, Arctic Fox and Northern Lights. They also served in the Caucasus, the invasion of Crete, the Balkans, the Gothic Line, and the battles in the Vosges region of France.

    What a good day for a snowy battle with toy soldiers with all the snow we received today. Did you time this lol? Hey Christian, don't forget us little people when you become big and famous with your Plastic General movie. 😁 BTW, the PG figures are looking pretty snazzy. I noticed your trademark base was added to them lol. Cheers!
