Hi,
The following photo is from an old book on Kasserine battle. The photo shows a german veteran para in Tunisia with beard (that looks like from an A. Dumas book character), wearing Zeltbahn and a german army helmet. Obviously, the Warriors 1/9 figure was inspirated by that photo.
Greentigs,

The book references:
Rutherford, Ward
Ballantine’s Illustrated History of WWII, Battle Book #18
Kasserine: Baptism of Fire
New York: Ballantine, 1970
