History: Panzer Grenadiers were formed to provide mobile infantry support to armoured formations, bridging the gap between tanks and traditional infantry. During WWII, they were heavily involved in both offensive and defensive operations across Europe, often transported in Sd.Kfz. 251 half-tracks. Equipped with a mix of rifles, submachine guns, light machine guns, and grenades, these troops were trained to dismount quickly, secure key objectives, and work in close coordination with tanks, making them a vital part of Germany’s combined arms strategy.
