Life passed by pretty quickly while Bruno continued about his daily life within the German Reich. All he could do during this time was make the necessary preparations for the upcoming war, one which would engulf the entire world, or at least the vast majority of it, and would cause the deaths of tens of millions of people, primarily the poor souls sent to the trenches.
By 1911, the German Army had completely overhauled its armament and doctrine. Every single rifleman was now equipped and trained with the Gewehr 05 semi-automatic service rifle, which had become the standard-issue weapon for the German Army and its soldiers.
The Gewehr 05, of course, being the designation given to the modified variant of the Gewehr 43, which Bruno had designed in this life. Aside from the Gewehr 05, there was also at least one man in each squad armed with an MG-05 (MG-34) general-purpose machine gun.
