This Germany figure set / infantry captures one of the most significant subjects of World War II with Dragon's trademark historical accuracy and engineering excellence.Historical Background:The Hermann Göring Division was one of the Luftwaffe's elite ground combat formations, originally raised as an air force field division but developed into a full panzer division by 1943. The HG Division fought with distinction in the defense of Sicily in 1943 and was subsequently transferred to Italy, where it played a critical role in the bitter defensive battles around Anzio and Cassino in early 1944. The Anzio landings in January 1944 (Operation Shingle) caught the Germans by surprise, but Field Marshal Kesselring quickly assembled forces — including the HG Division — to contain the Allied beachhead. For months, fierce fighting raged around the Anzio perimeter as the HG Division helped pin down Allied forces in some of the war's most brutal attritional combat. Dragon's figure set captures these Luftwaffe ground troops in their distinctive field dress and equipment.Key Features:Multiple highly detailed 1/35 scale HG Division infantry figuresLuftwaffe ground forces distinctive 1944 Italian campaign uniformsAccurate Fallschirmjäger-influenced equipment and webbingDynamic diorama-ready poses depicting the Anzio campaignDragon's premium 'Alpha' figure sculpting standardAuthentic Italian Theater 1944 personal weapons and gearCartograf waterslide decals for HG Division insigniaIdeal For:Italian campaign and Anzio beachhead history enthusiastsLuftwaffe ground forces and HG Division collectorsMediterranean theater WWII diorama buildersFigure painters seeking uniquely uniformed Luftwaffe infantryDragon Models is the world leader in 1/35 scale WWII armor and figures, renowned for their Smart Kit engineering, slide-molded parts, and military consultant accuracy.
