High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Panzergrenadier is a German term for motorised or mechanized infantry, as introduced during World War II. It is used in the armies of Austria, Chile, Germany and Switzerland. The term Panzergrenadier was not adopted until 1942. Infantry in panzer divisions from 1939 onwards were known as Schutzen Regiments; they wore the same rose pink piping on their uniforms as the tank crews. Soldiers in special Motorized Infantry units wore the standard white piping of the Infantry. In 1942, when Infantry Regiments were renamed as Grenadier Regiments by Hitler as a historical homage to Frederick the Great's Army, the Schutzen regiments began to be redesignated as Panzergrenadier regiments, as did Motorized Infantry units and soldiers.
