DIO: “Werfer Regiment to the Front”

Werfer Regiment 84
Werfer Brigade 7
Attached to 12th SS-Panzer Division
Normandy, July 1944

Some elements of the Werfer Regiment 84 , recently attached to the “Hitlerjugend” Division, meet with a group of the division’s Reconnaissance detachment..
In the hedgerow in the background and trees nearby there are some elements of the LAH Division including a MG crew, a Grille and several 250s from the Reconnaissance detachment.
Here are some images, many more in this link:

Besides the ever expanding live hedgerow, I recently expanded the “road” and added a Y turn. Behind the “treeline” there are some structures and backdrips to hide real world items!
Most of the vehicles you have seen individually before. There are two new items, the two Kubels. These are the recent Cal-Tek releases, finished one with SS markings and the other in Heer markings.
In the road section I used Schwimm(DML), a Toy Model Zundapp with sidecar, a Cal-Tek Kubel, a BMW motorcycle with sidecar(DML/CH), the recent Sdkfz11 from Mardon Callanta and Plasticpanzer, a DID Nebelwerfer, a DID Kettenkrad, a Mardon Callanta 251, a Maultier O got from Panzerwerk many years ago towing a 21C Pak40 and a Plasticpanzer Opel Blitz.
Near the treeline there is a 250/9 from Mardon Callanta with AH running gear and an AH 250/1, both with plenty of custom parts. Also a couple of 21C motorcycles with sidecars. Near the hedgerow, there is another Cal-Tek Kubel, a single BMW.(DML/CH) a Grille from Majormidnite and another 21C motorcycle.
All the figures are old, except the Nebelwerfer’s crew.
