About the MG-08 and German MG Crews:
The Maschinengewehr 08 (MG-08) was the standard German machine gun of World War I, based on the Maxim gun design. With a high rate of fire and water-cooled barrel, it was a key weapon in trench warfare, cutting down waves of attacking infantry. German MG teams were deployed in defensive strongpoints, using bunkers, sandbags, and dugouts to maximize their deadly efficiency. The MG-08 was also mounted on sledge carriages and field positions, making it a crucial part of German firepower throughout the war.
