Description: WW2 1/6 Dragon Action Figure "Jochen" free shipping Descriptionplease confirm item model and appearance with photosWW2 1/6 Dragon Action Figure "Jochen" free shippingThis is SS Lieutenant Colonel Joachim Peiper, commander of the Piper Combat Group of the 1st SS Panzer Division LAH of the German Waffen-SS, manufactured by Dragon Models and sold exclusively by Cyber Hobby in 2001. "Jochen" is his nickname. Born in 1915 into a military family in Berlin, he admired his father, who was an army officer, and in 1934, at the age of 19, he volunteered for the SS Special Forces and was selected to enter the SS Officer Academy, and after graduating, he was commissioned as an SS Second Lieutenant. Joachim was a typical Aryan race that the SS idealized, so in 1938 he served as an adjutant to SS Chief Heinrich Muller. He also participated in the invasion of Poland in 1939 as the commander of the 11th company of the SSLAH Regiment, and was awarded the Iron Cross 1st Class in 1940. In 1942, the LAH was expanded into a division and fought in the Balkans and Russia. In 1943, he was promoted to SS Major and appointed commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd SS Panzergrenadier Regiment, where he was awarded the Knight's Cross during the 3rd Battle of Kharkov in February. In December, he became commander of the 1st SS Tank Regiment. In January 1944, he was awarded the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves and promoted to SS Lieutenant Colonel. In December, during the Ardennes Offensive, he led the specially organized Piper Combat Group and led the capture of Antwerp, for which he was awarded the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords for his military achievements. After that, due to the stubborn resistance of the American forces and a lack of relief supplies, the situation gradually became unfavorable for him, and he ordered a retreat, but during the operation, a massacre occurred in which the troops under his command killed many captured American soldiers. In 1945, he fought against the Red Army from Hungary to Austria, but surrendered to the US forces at the end of the war and disarmed. In the postwar settlement, he was tried and sentenced to death along with other Waffen-SS members for his involvement in the massacre, but his sentence was commuted (among his defense team was a Jew whose life he had saved in 1943). After serving his 11 and a half year sentence, he was released on parole in December 1956 and lived in hiding with his family in France. However, in 1976, he was discovered by a French Communist Party activist and his identity was revealed, and he was ordered by the French government to leave the country before the Paris Festival on July 14th. On the 13th, the day before, someone threw a Molotov cocktail into his house, and his family, who had evacuated to Germany in advance, were safe, but the veteran hero Piper sadly died in fire. He was 61 years old. The figure comes with a black leather winter suit and top, which was issued to the SS in small numbers, as well as various medals and a half-smoked cigarette. The box is slightly scratched, but the figure is new. If you are a fan of Piper, who left many anecdotes behind, please enjoy it. Although it is a new, unopened, and unused item, it has been a long time since I purchased it. Some items may deteriorate or fade over time, so please be aware of this before purchasing.
