Much as I love Annie's Women of the Resistance, it's also necessary to provide them with some opposition! So from Grey for Now Games, here is Helga from the Guards of Facility 9 expansion set. To be honest, GfN simply call her 'the Adjutant', but I decided to name after Private Helga Geerhart from 'Allo, 'Allo.
German Wehrmachthelferinnen or 'armed forces helper corps' were barred from combat roles, so rifle-armed Helga here is a bit more fantasy than reality. Her skirt should really be the same colour as her tunic, but I gave her a grey skirt to match the grey trousers of the Wehrmacht soldiers I've already painted.
I also painted some German casualties - what one might call 'good Nazis' - along with a sleepy soldier pulling on his tunic as he moves to respond to a late-night alarm.
