FOB056 – Wehrmacht Mounted Officer | King & Country
Horses remained an important part of the German Army throughout the Second World War, particularly for transport, reconnaissance and command duties. Despite the popular image of a fully mechanised Wehrmacht, large numbers of German units continued to rely heavily on horse-drawn transport and mounted personnel.
FOB056 – Wehrmacht Mounted Officer depicts a German officer on horseback, reflecting a more traditional aspect of military command during the early years of the war. Mounted officers could often be seen moving between positions, supervising troops or travelling with formations where motor transport was limited or unavailable.
The figure is especially well suited to early-war European displays and complements King & Country’s Fields of Battle range, including infantry, vehicles and scenic pieces from the 1939–1940 campaigns.
Now available from The Military Workshop.
Brand: King & Country
