Flames of War German Fallschirmjäger Rifle Platoon
The Fallschirmjäger rifle platoon was the core fighting unit of Germany’s elite paratroopers. Larger than standard infantry formations, they were structured with extra manpower to account for potential parachuting losses, which in turn made them more resilient in extended ground combat. Renowned for their discipline, esprit de corps, and aggressive fighting spirit, the Fallschirmjäger became some of the most feared light infantry in World War II, able to hold their own against overwhelming odds.
