This image shows a custom building block minifigure representing a British volunteer soldier who served with the German military during World War II in the unit known as the British Free Corps (Britisches Freikorps).
The character is wearing the standard field grey (feldgrau) uniform of the German army. He is equipped with a set of tan-colored leather or webbing equipment, which is distinct from the more common black leather gear. This includes a Y-strap suspension harness and a belt with dark-colored ammunition pouches. A red and white flash is visible on the belt buckle area. The minifigure’s head is printed with blue eyes and the chinstrap for a helmet (though the helmet is not present). His legs are printed with gaiters over his trousers.
Based on his equipment, this soldier represents a standard infantryman or rifleman. The ammunition pouches are of the type used to carry clips for a bolt-action rifle, which was the primary weapon for most infantry soldiers in the German army.
