Before anyone gets any ideas, let's make one thing straight. In "Company of Heroes" the Volksgrenadier unit is rather fictional. It'a a mix of the real volkssturm and the original volksgrenadiers, but actually it's neither one of them. Originally the Volksgrenadiers were an elite division, decorated soldiers, better than average infantrymen. In the game, they seem to be more like the "original" volkssturm, young boys and old men at arms. I made this tribute to respect both the real volkssturm and the Volksgrenadiers in the game...

  • ..some of these ignorant comments make me sad.

  • @Rejfor Actually. Hitler started the war, not Germans.

    And why is it annoying that kids like their uniforms? They surpass even TODAY's best of uniforms.

    Fact.

  • @ExtremelyFlamable100

    Dude, you may tell things like "it was unfair - Germany vs all!" but Germans started all this shit so there was a good payback for them in 1944-1945. Payback was so good that modern Germany is the pussiest country in Europe.

    Plus many peop... kids love Nazi army because their stylish uniform. It's so annoying.

  • @Rejfor why?

  • @sarajane68

    of course they were not nazis - all Germans in 1939-1945 became NOT-NAZIS after capturing by Allies

  • a man once said your faceing a enemy just like you with propaganda just like you those were people their not nazis there just confused people looking for a leader

  • Germans really deserved what happened to them in 1944-1945.

  • @pkidro "Volkssturm" is the German term for all the men (and sometimes women) which had to defend Germany in the last few weeks of the war. No training, just the old the young and the weak

  • Kinderparty move out!
