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, but with specific insignia for this unit. On the collar, instead of the standard German Litzen, he has the three lions insignia, which was the emblem of the British Free Corps. He is fully equipped with black leather combat gear, including a Y-strap suspension harness, a belt with a red and white flash, and a complete set of infantry equipment. This includes ammunition pouches, a canteen, and a mess kit. The minifigure’s head is printed with blue eyes and the chinstrap for a helmet. His legs are printed with gaiters over his trousers.
Based on his comprehensive standard-issue equipment, this soldier represents a typical infantryman or rifleman. This was the most common role for soldiers in the army, equipped for frontline combat with a rifle and the necessary gear for survival in the field.
