The Waffen-SS was formed as the armed wing of the Nazi Party, but gradually it was expanded to 38 divisions. They fought on both Eastern and Western fronts alongside the Heer Divisions of the German Army. They were typically given highest priority on equipment and were initially recruited from the most fanatical and diehard soldiers. The tank divisions in particular were feared by the Allies, and the SS were known to be highly effective soldiers.

First Legion's Battle of Normandy range expands with these extremely flexible military miniatures. The figures can be used as Panzer Grenadiers from just about any Waffen-SS division including 12th SS Hitler Jugend, 1st SS Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, 17th SS Gotz von Berlichingen, 2nd SS Das Reich, 9th SS Hohenstaufen, or 10th SS Frundsberg. First Legion intended them as members of the 17th SS opposing the US Paratroopers at the Battle of Bloody Gulch, which you may have seen in the HBO mini-series Band of Brothers. However, they can represent any of the above mentioned formations. The US Paratroopers (NOR001-012) now have some opposition as the Waffen-SS take the field!

This soldier has improved his already deadly StG 44 by adding a scope to scout enemy positions.
