United States Army (Default Unit)
U.S. Army Faction
Official Description:

The United States entered World War II with the Allies following the japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. With a "Europe first" strategy, the Allies landed in North Africa by the end of 1942 to open a second front and relieve German pressure on the Soviets. The 1943 invasions of Sicily and mainland Italy brought the U.S. and Commonwealth armies to mainland Europe. Operation Overlord in June 1944 brought the forces into France, where they continued to fight through Belgium, the Netherlands, and finally into Germany. The United States Army was the backbone of their fighting force, spearheaded by the infantry divisions.

A bold river crossing finally enabled the paratroopers to take the bridge, with the support of British armor. During the Battle of the Bulge in 1944, 82nd paratroopers faced overwhelming amounts of Waffen SS troops. They were forced to withdraw, held their ground, and eventually forced the Germans to retreat in early 1945.

After the war ended, an 82nd honor guard in Berlin impressed General Patton, who called them "America's Guard of Honor".

The 101st Airborne Division formed in 1942, and their pathfinders were among the first boots on the ground during the D-Day invasion in June 1944. The paratroopers jumped on three drop zones behind Utah Beach to help disrupt German defenses. In September 1944, they parachuted into The Netherlands as part of Operation Market Garden, to capture and secure key bridges and the "Hell's Highway" for British armor to advance. During the Ardennes Offensive by the Germans in late 1944 and into 1945, the 101st were transported by truck to reinforce Bastogne. German panzer divisions surrounded the town and demanded their surrender, but acting commander General McAuliffe responded with a note that famously said: "NUTS!".

Commonwealth Army Faction
Official Description:

The Seaforth Highlanders of Canada were formed in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1910 as the 72nd Highlanders of Canada. Landing in Sicily in 1943, the Seaforths saw some of the most bitter fighting during the Italian Campaign. They spent Christmas 1943 in a captured church just outside of Ortona, and days later engaged in fierce street-by-street combat against German Fallschirmjägers holed up in the city. By May 1944, as the Allies pushed the Germans back to the Hitler Line, the veterans of Ortona said fighting in the Liri Valley was the most grim battle. They continued to fight towards Rome, and Private "Smokey" Smith earned a Victoria Cross for actions fighting for a bridge over the Savio River. In 1945, the Seaforths were deployed to The Netherlands to help liberate Alepdoorn, and they were the first Allied troops to enter Amsterdam.

Hey man, I think the 272. Volks use the "oak B" camo, or Beringtes Eichenlaubmuster. I looked that up here: https://fjm44.com/articles/zeltbahn-31-waffen-ss-oak-b-2/ and it seems to fit the profile better than Platanenmuster.

Yes, the 2nd Ranger Battalion is the worst skin.

i was joking but when you go sniper (pants,jacket,helmet combo) i think its actually better than the default greys, especially in reichswald. if the developers were less lazy and made them smocks instead of just reskins they would have looked even more swag
