Older Person Skin
« on: July 13, 2010, 03:12:34 AM »
I was reading online about how the Red Army never turned down anyone due to age.I was thinking,maybe add a mixture of older people and younger people into the skin mesh.I dont think people look at the faces of the people unless they are recording,but its just a suggestion.

You shouldn't be sarcastic. It's quite good idea, because in Volksgrenadiers squad we can see only mid-aged guys, while in the reality volks were too young or too old so serve in regular army. Let's say 16 and 65 years old would fit... Give one of them a beard or white hair...

Well Seeme, the average age of Hitlerjugend volunteers were well within your age group, so it wouldn't be strange if the Soviets had made similar measures in recruitment. In fact, I read some of my great-grandpa's letters which described more than a few "little girls and boys" fighting as partisans.  :o

On Web you can find a photo of 14 years old Volksgrenadier.
That was taken during Market Garden Operation.
Anyways, also Conscript was very young sometimes.

Can you post it?
I also remember a Volks often saying, "Watch your language, zer are kids in zis war!"
"You can close your eyes and plug your ears and be afraid and ignorant of the darker parts of history, but always know that you're the one responsible for allowing those events to happen again and with even greater consequences and not know how to end the nightmare you did upon yourself."
