Grenadier Company (German)

Grenadier Company includes two Formation Command MP40 SMG Teams, two Unit Leader MG42 & K98 Rifle Teams,twelve MG42 & K98 Rifle Teams and four Panzerschreck Anti-tank Teams. The troops assigned to defend the beaches of France against the Allied invasion had been deemed unfit for front-line service. They spent more of their time building fortifications than training, but their lack of combat skills mattered less when they stuck to their intended defensive role, but did limit their capability in offensive operations.
