[/code]Name: Friedrich Jaeger

Position: Commader

Nationality: German

Physical description: 6’ with brown hair and blue eyes. His face and hands are weathered from his time commanding tanks. There’s a small scar that runs diagonally from the bottom right side of his face to about the center of his cheek from a shrapnel wound.

Psychological Evaluation: Jaeger is a man who at first, seems unqualified for a tank. He’s relatively quiet when not on missions and tends to stick around HQ to get his orders directly or he reads quietly and helps the younger men cope with war.

However, while in a tank, his personality shifts. He’s quick on his feet and knows when to engage a tank or convoy. He’s fiercely protective of his crew and won’t let them die for some pointless attack. While not quick to anger, his rages are legendary when he really cares about something.

Biography: Born: 1905 in Stuggart, Germany

Ernst was fascinated by the army and joined the Weimar Republic’s volounteer military in 1928. While not initially involved in tanks, his leadership got him nominated for the role of tank commander. While not initially given a Panzer IV, he was transferred to his own new Panzer IV in 1939. He passionatly dubbed her ‘Gretchen das großartig‘(Gretchen the Grand) after his wife of the same name. ‘Gretchen das Großartig’ participated in the Polish invasion and Code Yellow(around the maginot) until it was sent to Africa with Rommel and remained there until now. His scar came from Poland where shrapnel from an exploding Polish AT gun grazed him.

Just one question, are we going to start when we have a full crew?

Code: Select all

Name: Arend Nardo

Position: Gunner

Nationality: German

Physical description: 6’1, 86kg with blue eyes, lighter brown hair in a buzz cut. He has multiple burn marks on his hands and scars on his legs from previous injuries in the field.

Psychological Evaluation: A jokester and prankster, Arend is always having fun making jokes in the worst of situations and messing with his fellow soldiers and superiors. He has a slight disregard for authority around the base and follows his own set of rules. While being hated by his superiors, he is extremely good at what he does being able to aim and fire quickly and precisely.

While seeming like he always messes around on base, under pressure Arend stays level headed and can turn serious extremely fast once he starts focusing on the task at hand. This combined with his talent to fire accurately and calculate ranges quickly is the main reason he hasn’t been dishonorably discharged.

Biography: Arend was born on January 3rd, 1919 to a middle class family in Hamburg and is the first of three children in his family. At a young age he wanted to serve his country but when first applying he was turned down after failing his physical exam. He strived to become better training daily to boost his strength. He was finally accepted but decided to join an armor unit as a gunner instead after seeing the magnificent tanks of the German Empire during a parade near Stuttgart which changed his mind about being just a standard rifleman in a platoon.
