GERMAN
The defending forces were a mixed bag and consisted of troops from the Kriegsmarine Infanterie (which is something of a tall order for a one-off event), Coastal Defence troops who wore feldgrau wool or hbt but with gold KM buckles, breast eagles, tresse, litzen and old fashioned mitred-end shoulderboards, as well as a garrison of regular Heer infantry. There were also a number of U-Boot and ships crew on shore leave. No Waffen SS.
WEAPONS
Any Allied or Axis weapons acceptable (only bring STG44s or PPSh if you have absolutely nothing else). The demolitions teams will only carry pistols so choose something that works.
