Name: Moritz Greiter
Age: 31
Description: Tall, rugged, dark hair, chiselled features and hazle eyes. Wears the standard field-grey M42 combat tunic and a steel M1940 helmet. 
Background: Moritz joined the Wehrmacht in 1936, because frankly he couldn't seem get himself a job - and even if he did, it was a short lived affair. From Norway, to France and then Greece, he proved himself several times on the battlefield, and was tipped for promotion into the officer ranks. However, an altercation developed during the storming of a Greek village. The peoples were unarmed and had surrendered, but nevertheless, Moritz's unit was ordered to execute them for 'partisan' activities. He declined the order, and found himself on the steel toe cap of an SS jackboot. Moved to a penal unit for punishment, but spared death because of his service history, Moritz has become disillusioned with the Nazi regime. 

Seventeen operations on the Eastern Front, most of them involving mindfield clearing duties in broad daylight ahead of an offensive action, and here he is: Stalingrad. His survival thus far had not been through skill or instinct, but rather luck and chaos. Every mission was designed to eliminate his unit, so that the powers that be wouldn't have to go through the embarassment of pulling undesirables back into the fold.

 On the road to Stalingrad, his penal unit was assigned the duty of ousting a Russian tank detachment from a ridge with nothing but rifles and grenades. Victory was theirs, but of the three hundred men involved, only thirty made it back. He has been promised time and time again an honourable discharge back into civilian life for his undoubtable display of courage and battlefield vigour, but it has never come. This weighs heavily on his mental state: He knows he is going to die in this war, no matter what he does.

As the German army rounds on Stalingrad, his penal unit is sent head first into the fray.
