FJ Flamethrower – 1st Fallschirmjäger division, Montecassino (Italy), 1944

In the Battle of Monte Cassino, 1st Fallschirmjäger division held the ground near the Monastery of Monte Cassino. After the monastery had been bombed by the Allies, the Germans moved into protected positions among the bricks and cellars. The Fallschirmjäger held out for months against repeated assaults and heavy bombardment. Here they gained the nickname “Green Devils” from the Allied forces for their distinctive jackets and their tenacious defence. Inflicting huge losses on the Allied forces, they ultimately retreated from their positions only to avoid being outflanked (font Wikipedia).

The creation of this figure dates back to 2006. In 2021 it was taken up by Jeffshìu’s Miniatures which made a 120mm figure from it.
