History & inspiration

The squad leader's two weapons

The MP40 in one hand and stick grenade in the other give this Waffen-SS squad leader an immediately recognizable close-combat appearance. King & Country contrasts his vigilance with the quieter behavior of another man in the wider group.

The MP40's compact form served a different purpose from a full-powered infantry rifle, while the grenade added another short-range option. Together they explain the pose without turning the figure into a super-soldier. He represents an NCO's role within the Waffen-SS, whose history includes both front-line operations and participation in Nazi crimes.
