Trivia

  • The critical hit animation is the same manner of attack the Soldier uses to take out the Spy in Meet the Soldier.
  • The tool's real-life counterpart is the U.S. Army M-1943 entrenching tool.
  • According to the Mac Update comic, the Soldier's Shovel is highly flammable, will spontaneously catch fire, and can barely dig holes due to it being a Mann Co. product.
