Name: Moritz Greiter
Age: 31
Gender Male
Nationality: German
Bio: Prior to the invasion of Poland, Moritz was a steel worker in the Rhineland who held little interest in joining the Wehrmacht if he could avoid it. Instead, he lived a relatively peaceful and straight forward existence; working 6 til 6 in the factory during the day, and caring for his wife and daughter in the evenings. He worked hard, kept his business to himself, and turned an increasingly blind eye to the questionable shenanigans of National Socialism.
However, with the outbreak of World War Two, he was finally called up to serve the Fatherland. Unable to shirk the draft, he reported to his local muster office and was launched head first into the world of the German war machine.
He spent three months training as a tanker, and made it in time to join the invasion of France. During the battle, his unit was often found on the fleeting fringes of the Blitzkrieg advance. From one action after another, Moritz gained prestige as an abled soldier, and soon assumed the role of a Panzer III commander.
During the battle of the Waygand Line, his Panzer platoon sustained heavy casualties - including his immediate commander - and he found himself facing down two superior French tanks in an open field. Keeping his cool, he operated a daring attack against his opponents, successfully evading their fire and executing a close-range AP kill on both. For his actions, he was hailed as a hero, and elevated to the rank of Captain.
And as the scene is set for the Eastern Front, he finds himself in charge of Panzergrenadierkompanie B's Panzer platoon. Time will tell if this reluctant soldier continues to excel in the bloody business of war.
Personality: Moritz is almost always sarcastic and cynical of just about everything, and makes little effort in=hiding his displeasure at being called into the war. However, when confronted with a situation, he becomes focused and cold in a calculating kind of way. He's a soldier's leader, and mingles with his men well, but struggles to keep a front of joyful optimism when conversing with other officers.
Appearance: Tall, rugged, dark hair, chiselled features and hazel eyes. Wears the standard black tank uniform and a steel M1940 helmet.
