Warriors #35359 SS Wounded

Andrew Dextras

Again another handy late war SS pair depicting a defiant wounded grenadier being dragged back by the collar while he still continues to fire his rifle upwardly off the ground. Dio possibilities abound from returning fire to an upper floor sniper to a "Jabo" on a strafing run. The wounded figure is bareheaded in a camo smock over his greys and short ankle boots and gaiters, while his rescuer is in the standard M43 feldgrau tunic, camo pants and helmet with cover also wearing the short boot/gaiter combo. His weapon is an Stg.44 assault rifle which may be a little rare for a Normandy scene as shown on the box top, though easily swapped for an MP-40 etc.
