History:

During World War II, German sentries and rear-echelon troops played a vital role in securing supply lines, maintaining order in occupied territories, and guarding strategic locations such as bridges, depots, and airfields. Often stationed far from the front lines, these soldiers were the first line of defence against sabotage, espionage, and infiltration. Their presence is essential in historical recreations of partisan raids, commando strikes, or clandestine missions. Wargames Atlantics German Sentries kit captures this aspect of WWII with attention to uniform detail and practical poses, making it an excellent addition to any Axis collection and a valuable resource for scenario-based wargaming.
