The term "Pin-Up Girls" derives from a trend that was clearly perceived in the 1940s and 1950s in the United States. It concerns posters hung by men from various social classes (most often by blue collar workers or soldiers, but not only!) With specifically dressed and make-up women with a clear erotic tinge. Let us add that although these posters were erotic, they were not treated as pornography, which was forbidden in the US at that time. These "Poster Women", that is the Pin-Up Girls, were always smiling, they wore either flared, loose polka dot or striped dresses, or very skimpy underwear, or bathing suits. They were often depicted wearing high waisted shorts. Of course, the Pin-Up Girls outfits were presented in such a way as to reveal as much of the models' bodies as possible. Let us add that also many official photos of Marilyn Monroe are kept in this style. The makeup used was also very clear with red lipstick underlined on the lips and strong black lines above the upper eyelids. It is worth adding that from the beginning of the 21st century there has been a noticeable renewed fashion for styling and makeup in the spirit of Pin-Up Girls.
Panzergrenadier is a German term for a formation of panzer grenadiers, i.e. infantry units trained to fight in close cooperation with their own tanks. This term was officially used in 1942, when infantry divisions were renamed grenadier divisions and motorized infantry divisions into panzer grenadier divisions. It is worth adding that in the years 1937-1942, the Schützen Regiment was used to describe the infantry regiments serving in armored units. Theoretically, the basic equipment of armored grenadier divisions was to be armored half-tracked transporters, especially Sd.Kfz.251, but due to insufficient production, these infantry were often transported by trucks. As a standard, an armored grenadier division consisted of three infantry regiments, two battalions in each regiment and numerous support units, including anti-tank, anti-aircraft, sapper and communication units. Self-propelled guns, such as the StuG III, were often used in these formations. It is worth adding that the armored grenadier divisions were formed not only in the Wehrmacht, but also in the Waffen SS - for example the Totenkopf Division or the Hohenstaufen Division.
