Captured from a German Officer

I am a big fan of the German paratroopers. And from all of the fallschirmjager vets I have talked to, a P08 and P-38 were standard issue side arms for all paratroopers. Now yes, this could have changed later in the war, but from what I hear a large majorty of all fallschirmjager troopers, from EM all thu way up to Officer level had them.
