Added DiffLines:

* CustomUniform: He took some liberties with his uniform: rather than the black shirt under the jacket and fez of [[BlackShirts the MVSN he was affiliated to]], he wears a white shirt and a [=M33=] helmet (the latter further customized by painting an anchor), and he pilfered German combat boots to replace the shoes he would have otherwise worn.

* VeteranInstructor: He's the most experienced soldier of the battalion, and always assigned to train the NewMeat. Surprisingly enough, he's very good in spite of his sadism, once making a soldier out of someone literally too stupid to wear his boots with the points forward.



* SmokingIsCool: Almost all the time they're shown smoking from a cigarette. It doesn't help that they light them up by scratching their matches against flying bullets or other soldiers' helmets.

Added DiffLines:

* TheDogBitesBack: He's usually at the mercy of the antics of both officers, sergeants, and even refular soldiers... But he's also the guy feeding everyone, and at times he strikes back. It's even implied he cooks badly ''on purpose'' after dirty laundry water was preferred to his meals...

Added DiffLines:

* LegallyDead: In one of his early antics he tripped while carrying hot coffee and started claiming he had "heroically fallen" in the course of his duty, and the bureaucracy took him at his words. He promptly lost all of his possessions (inherited by his family) and almost starved to dead before being reinstated as the "Soul of a Heroic Fallen" because the cook refused to feed a dead man.


Added DiffLines:

* ThePoliticalOfficer: Utterly mocked: his introduction describes him as a ''Federale'', that is either the Federal Secretary of the Fascist Party reporting directly to ''Mussolini himself'' or a deputy... But he doesn't act like that at all.

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: The soldiers ''loved'' him.

Nice Hat has been disambiguated


* NiceHat: He always wears a chef's hat over his head rather than his helmet. In one strip an officer has him punished for not wearing the helmet like everyone else... And the cook answered by serving the officer the cooked chef's hat, prompting the latter to forget about the punishment.

Up To Eleven is being dewicked.


* BigEater: "Glutton" Franz, known for raiding the kitchen during night time.
** When the lunch became alive and went on a rampage, "Glutton" Franz was the one who defeated it, by [[BalloonBelly eating a cauldron worth of lunch]] that had previously eaten a cross and at least another soldier with all the uniform, had been pissed on ([[ItMakesSenseInContext they had no holy water]]) and was armed with a makeshift flamethrower.

Added DiffLines:

* AffablyEvil: It's easy to forget that aside for the Drunken Captain the various captains only actually care for their careers, and are willing to get the entire battalion addicted to drugs if it means preventing a mutiny without looking bad in front of the higher-ups by actually addressing the causes of the malcontent.


Added DiffLines:

* PragmaticEvil: The captains (usually) act as the voice of reason and (usually) keep the troop in good health... Because this way it's more likely their career will progress.
