No Boys ATR?
I’m all about close combat tonight
So, Japanese ATR with bayonet?
Webley Mk.IV with bayonet. I had to drive 200 miles in torrential rain tonight to make an early meeting tomorrow morning that got cancelled before I arrived here.

So why does panzerkampfwagen use kampf and not striet? Or was “combat” an alternate meaning to “struggle” for kampf in 1930s German?
Streit one it's own means dispute. Kampf means fight. So it's armoured fight(ing) vehicle.

As I wrote before, its older meaning is actually "combat" or "war". As preserved in the word "Streitwagen" or "Streitkräfte".
