By Michele A.
Notwithstanding the page name, this guy is not a Nazi party member. He's just a German soldier in 1939. His main motivation is the same as that of many young men like him in his day, patriotism.
This is a very generic German infantryman, with no special personal Traits, save the most common ones.
His Attributes and Skills reflect the fact that in 1939, the average soldier was pretty thoroughly trained and physically conditioned; also, he belongs to a first-class division, in which most privates would be young, healthy and bright for their age.
