Default Every Luger Has Its History

When I received this historic unit marked 169th INFANTRY REGIMENT i have been researching ever since. You can now trace actual battles and and causulties. Post a message if you want help with your gun.

A fascinating article of actual trench warfare in the Extracts from "Experiences of Baden Solgiers of the Front, Volume 1: Machine guns in the Iron Regiment No, 169" I don't remember how to get access with this facinating account for life in the trenches of which I am so appreciative to now own a part of a conflict on which my family fought on both sides'
