History
Ground crewmen were vital to the operational readiness of the Imperial German Air Service’s bomber fleet during World War I. Their responsibilities included arming aircraft with bombs, conducting pre-flight inspections, and ensuring all munitions were secure and functional before takeoff. These duties were performed under tight schedules and often in challenging weather conditions, with the safety of the entire crew depending on their precision and expertise. Depicting such figures in scale adds an essential layer of realism to bomber dioramas, showcasing the behind-the-scenes work that made long-range air operations possible.
