Reichsflugscheiben aside, I wonder when those Fallis in Russia pictures were taken.
I suppose mid 1990s for the simple reason that I didnt see a single G 36.
Maybe it was one of the early PFP exercises.
Re Thüringen, the state is quite interesting, even though I'm totally against state patriotism, I'm german and nothing else. States have too much power in Germany and they would best be reduced to pure administrative purposes in my opinion.
The Wartburg, Eisenach, Weimar, a bunch of other nice cities as Erfurt.
Plus the whole WW2 Area 51 crap like Mittelbau-Dora, the giant underground V2 factory.
Btw, the "drei Gleichen" Area is where according to one book Germany tested a nuclear bomb in 45.
"Drei Gleichen" (wordplay, "three equals, but one of the castles is named Gleichen) area a group of three medieval castles aligned in a triangle over a large area, each sitting on a lone hill. Looks quite mysterious.
