The Prominent Ministry Of The Campaign, also known as the Arden Counter-Attack, was the most important and last German offensive on the Western Front during World War II, taking place between 16 December 1944 and 25 January 1945 in the forested Arden area between Belgium and Luxembourg. The Germans hoped to counter-attack by preventing the Allies from using the Belgian port of Antwerp, dividing their defences, and encircling and destroying four Allied forces. If successful, it would force the opposition to negotiate a peace treaty in favour of the Axis countries, so that the Germans could pull out of the eastern front. As one of the most important battles in World War II, Arden Counterattack was also the largest battle in World War II in which the U.S. military, the main defender, lost its most battles. Although the German counter-offensive caused the Allies to suffer heavy losses, but also seriously weakened their own defense forces in the western line and the eastern line of mobile forces, from then on no reserve force can be supplemented, not only completely lost the counter-offensive capability, but also difficult to carry out long-lasting effective defense. Four months after Arden's counterattack, Nazzi surrendered. Facebook Play chose one of the most famous historical photographs of the Arden counterattack as a prototype of the puppet, which featured an ordinary German soldier belonging to the SS's 1st Armoured Division Reserve. This photograph was taken on 18 December 1944 in the northern part of the village of Poteau. A group of German soldiers ambushed an armored convoy of American troops, where German troops took a brief break after the Americans fled in a hurry. Dressed in captured U.S. military ponchos and combat pants, the soldier shows off his gun in front of the camera. At this time the war situation is not clear, in the face of great unknowns, although a temporary victory, his face is still with a complex look. We tried to find his way through a diary. (The following details are based on the book Hugh M. Cole - The Ardennes: Battle of the Bugle and are not based on historical facts.))

Today is the third day of the counter-attack, and our troops are moving a little slowly. The road was so hard to walk that the Yankees laid a lot of mines around Manderfeld, causing us to be several hours behind schedule. Yesterday the troops were ordered to block the enemy on the road leading to Rechet on the north side of the village of Poteau. We were ambushed in the woods next to an intersection, where, according to the source, several units of U.S. armored division were scattered. They seem to be withdrawing, and this crossing should be their only route. We waited until midnight, until dawn, when a unit came over, and the Yankees seemed completely unaware of our plans. Through the fog, the hapless eggs completely did not find us, by our assault gun car caught off guard, the head of the M5 tank and M8 was directly blown up by the iron fist a thin. My partner and I just got on the plane and swept a shuttle, and saw their officers with two men jumping out of the car and running away, it is ridiculous, the rest of the Yankees are more unsustaking, have abandoned the car to escape. My mates and I went to clean up the battlefield, the Yankees left behind a lot of equipment, the front of an M3 has been burned out of shape, they called this car pickle harvester, it is really hateful. The war has been against us since the Normandy landings, and American man-made tanks have been too fast. The brothers were scrambling for the equipment left behind by the Americans, and I pulled out a raincoat and trousers from an armored car. Every time you get a lot of good cigarettes from the Yankees, it's a rare relaxation to get together and rest. Next to a camera guy, to us is a click, do not know he filmed us to do very much, go to the (censored) propaganda team, they know what is war? Well, show him my gun, for this Browning power I did not bother, although the American design things, but the key time to help a lot, is said to be made in earlier years in the Belgian factory. Veterans say that the days were good, which, like now, even the basic supply can not keep up, see the winter, has not distributed cotton clothing. The Fuhrer said that this counterattack was our last hope for Greater Germany, and if we succeeded in cutting the Allied front open, we could take a breather against the Soviet Union. The idea sounds crazy, but the Fuhrer's decision cannot be questioned, can it?

Interesting figure, looks quite believable. Even the toothed mouth seems better than what we usually see when the design incorporates that.
