8cm Mortar Platoon (Plastic) (GE760)

8cm Mortar Platoon (Plastic) (GE760)
includes six Plastic Mortar Teams and two Unit cards.

Panzergrenadiers had mortar sections attached from the battalion's heavy weapons platoon. These would be located close to the action to make sure the infantry was well supported with overhead artillery support allowing them to bombard enemy infantry trying to hide behind cover and knock out enemy guns.

Iron Cross
By the end of 1941, the German blitzkrieg had swept across open plains of the Soviet Union and stopped at the gates of Moscow as winter set in. The halt was only temporary as the Germans were back on the offensive in the summer of 1942. The attack sliced into the southern front, aiming at the oilfields of the Caucasus. Two army groups charged forward, one heading to the mountain country in the south, the other focussed on a small city on the Volga River called Stalingrad. The unstoppable German offensive was pushing Soviet morale to a breaking point as the most pivotal battles on the Eastern Front were about to be fought on the streets of Stalingrad and in the Russian Steppe.
