About the Volksgrenadiers:
The Volksgrenadiers were a late-war formation created in 1944 to replace the severe manpower losses of the German Army. Combining veteran officers, inexperienced recruits, and repurposed Luftwaffe and Navy personnel, these units were equipped with automatic weapons and innovative defensive tactics. Despite being hastily trained, the Volksgrenadiers fought fiercely in the Ardennes Offensive and Eastern Front battles, using terrain, firepower, and tactical ingenuity to slow the Allied advance.
