German view

[edit]

The 88th was viewed as an "elite stormtrooper" division because they were a very effective unit and the Germans were very wary of them. This, much more than a shoulder sleeve insignia, is why Germans felt the 88th was a "stormtrooper" division. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saturn Five (talkcontribs) 02:15, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
