VIETMINH: Helmut

Description

A lot of controversy of Indochina War lies in the fact of
French hiring former German soldiers. Eastern Propaganda
of that time described these men as blood-thirsty maniacs.
However, my research reveals German soldiers as often
the most disciplined, most professional and in many cases
most sound-minded troops you could find in Indochina War
theatre.

Dietrich is an example of such soldier. An ex-Wehrmacht,
who used to fight against Russian partisans. This makes him
an expert on anti-guerrilla warfare. Although his looks are
hard, Helmut has a kinder heart than most men. He is an
enthusiastic storyteller, a reliable soldier, and friend to the
player’s character.

Being a high rank, Helmut has also white scarf of the same
kind as squad’s commander. However, this scarf is worn
under his smock, as he is only an advisor, and his leadership
is not direct.

Helmut uses German MP-40 submachine gun. Both his clothing
pieces are of American frog skin camo, which may just slightly
resemble german spotted camouflage. Helmuts equipment
can include few more pieces of German origin:
watch, binoculars, belt or ammo pouches.

Honestly this as an RPG sounds absolutely awesome.
