Re: Blood and Iron

Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!

Pride is the Root of All Evil

Erich found himself in his new unit and was quite comfortable with the arrangement. In the Great War of Bruno's past life, "Stormtroopers" were a development much later in the conflict. They were especially small units who specialized in trench raiding. With the ultimate objective of infiltrating the enemy fortifications and forcing an entry for the regular infantry to break through. 

Development of such tactics led to significant gains by the German Army in the months that followed. Or at least relatively so, when 300,000 men died for six miles of land, and a million more were wounded in some capacity, then even a few yards of ground gained was "significant" in such a brutal war of attrition.
