I would point out a bit of context though: the Germans built

the Germans saw riflemen as support and protection for the machinegun,

support for the riflemen.
It's still the same in the German army, or rather was during my time in the infantry in the early 90s, before I was transfered to the engineers. It may have changed now with the new missions abroad.
