Historical Background:

The term Schtze denotes a rifleman, and this figure reflects the rugged Ardennes winter environment of late 1944. Kampfgruppe Hansen was a field composite unit often deployed for defensive actions against Allied advances. The figures gear and posture are well adapted to ambush or patrol vignettes in snow-laden terrain. ()
