Kampfgruppe Burgkart

Kampfgruppe Burgkart

The Kampfgruppe we portray is based on one that was formed during April of 1945 for The Battle of Berlin. 

Kampfgruppe Burgkart  name comes from the NCO who was its commander. It was formed of 30 men from the Wehrmacht, Waffen SS, Hitler Youth and girls from the Bund Deutscher Mädel.


What is a Kampfgruppe?

Kampfgruppe in English means ‘Fight Group’ or ‘Battle Group’. They were used heavily by the armed forces of Germany during WW2 especially as the war progressed and things turned against Germany. They were an ad-hoc formation which would have been put together for a specific task and then disbanded once that task had been completed. A Kampfgruppe could be a mix of troops and equipment from all branches of the German armed forces.
