Looking at current numbers, it would be great if those who are down in the booking thread as being able to come as either Heer or FJ, could actually come as FJ.
This will give us equal numbers of both which will make the initial zug assignments simpler.
As the battle wears on, you will be policed into ad-hoc squads for redeployment by the CO and feldgendarmerie.
Be prepared to follow your orders as instructed as the FG are authorised to perform on the spot court-martial and summary executions for even the most minor infractions!
“I wanted to come to the Volga at a specific location at a specific city. By chance it carries the name of Stalin himself. So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."

"Comrades, Red Army men, commanders and political workers, men and women guerrillas! It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."
Joseph Stalin, November 1942
I think it is only me and Tim (MacScrooge) who are down as either or, and I'll definately be coming as FJ now. Tim is currently trying on my old FJ smock for size, so I think he will be as well. I'll see him this weekend and we'll have a chat.
Cheers

Thanks Martin, Don't worry too much, if the FJ kit doesn't fit him and the Heer does then it's really not a big deal!

Our original German loadouts were LW Field Division (be the best!) so it isn't too hard to morph into FJ, especially in 1944.

There is plenty of spare FJ kit about if he needs to borrow any, mine included.
And mine - full loadout.
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
FJR for me - complete with comedy tropical baggy trousers!
