During WWII, German Army field military police units were tasked with managing traffic flow, manning checkpoints, and maintaining public order in occupied territories. This set contains five detailed military police figures in realistic poses and will be convenient for dioramas featuring vehicles such as the Citroën Traction 11CV and Steyr 1500.

Most German Army divisions in WWII usually had their own field military police platoons. These units were tasked with directing traffic along routes of advance and resupply, manning checkpoints, handling prisoners as well as deserters, and maintaining law and order of captured territories. Soldiers in these field military police units were distinguished by insignia on the left sleeves of their uniforms as well as a special gorget on their chest, which led regular soldiers to derisively call them "chain dogs."

The field military police wore the same Field Gray Model 1936 uniform as the ordinary soldiers. The shoulder badges featured orange edges while the patch on the left arm was either orange (enlisted ranks) or silver (officers). A brown armband was also worn on the left arm. Luminescent paint was applied to the eagle emblem on the silver metal gorget.
