Hi,
I agree that if modern-day Germany was trying to portray itself as a victim in the war, it would be ludicrous. Thanks to the advancement of photography and film, something as huge as the Second World War cannot be forgotten.

The original, much-clearer picture is down right now, but in the second grainy one it has hard to make out if it is a Fallschirmjager trooper or not. The Fallschirmjager mostly used Kar98s but later on they used the FG42 Scoped Semi-Automatic rifle, which was an ideal weapon for troops being dropped behind enemy lines.
Thanks,
Manga
