Hey fellas glad to see some 187th around.

I lead a historical Realism unit for Red orchestra, and now Arma.

we are the Grenadier-Regiment 187

we are mostly a WW2 Historical German Realism unit.

We represent the German WW2 unit the Grenadier-Regiment 187, a wehrmacht unit under the 87.Infantrie Division.

My best Friend and I cofounded the 187th, and we got the name from the American 187th as my friends father was in the 187th Rakkasans.

how long has your unit been around?
