Kampfgruppe Falken

Kampfgruppe Falken

Kampgruffe Falken was a story published in the Warlord (British comics). The story was about a penal battalion serving on the Russian Front during World War Two. Heinz Falken was the Commanding Officer of the battalion. He was an ex-panzer commander that had been sent to the penal battalion for not carrying out war crimes during the Blitzkrieg campaign of 1940. His crime had been that he would not carry out atrocities to please his Nazi Commander at the time.

The battalion were always given the worst jobs that could cause constant attrition if it were not for the fact that Falken would rarely carry out his orders in the traditional German Army fashion.

There were many principal characters like Hanko the Finn who was a wizard at tracking.

The stories that appeared began with the battalion fighting with their bare hands in order to grab weapons from the Russians. This was a preferred option to being used as human mine detectors. As the stories progressed, the battalion fought in the long hard struggle and the story moved from the Russian Front to the last days of the Reich fighting in the defence of Berlin.
