We represent a squad from the 5th Kompanie of the 38th regt.  We operate primarily as a light infantry squad or a headquarters section with pack radio's.  We have a couple of members who are fluent in german and we perform our drill in german as well.   We are also able to represent german paratroopers in either luftwffer or SS uniforms.   Our unit belongs to the Arizona Historical Group.
