in the history of the armies of european countries, the grenadiers were a symbol of the elite, such as the prussian potsdam grenadiers. during world war ii, the title of grenadiers had gradually changed from a branch of the military to a synonym for honor and elite. during world war ii, in order to boost the morale of the infantry and continue the tradition of the prussian army, the german army renamed the infantry regiment as the grenadiers. the picture shows paul schulz (1891-1964), the commander of the 308th grenadiers regiment of the german army. he is wearing the german m36 field gray officer uniform, brown leather gloves, and an officer's command sword with a gold-plated handle. the epaulettes are made of two sets of silk threads twisted into a braided shape, with two rank stars on it, representing his rank of colonel. there is also a gold-plated material 308 number mark on the epaulettes representing the 308th regiment. in august 1942, schulz led the 308th grenadier regiment, which lacked artillery, in a fierce battle with the soviet army in krasnodar-pashkovskaya, the soviet union, and achieved significant results. after the war, he was awarded the knight's cross. the picture shows a standard photo of him after receiving the knight's cross. in addition, there is an iron cross medal won during world war i on the left front pocket of his uniform (the medal has the 1939 eagle emblem of the iron cross first class of world war i above it, which is easy to identify), and a silver infantry assault badge below it. there is also a gold german cross medal on the right front pocket of his uniform (although the diamond grade is the highest grade, it has not been awarded, and the gold grade is the highest grade actually awarded).
