Will Germany's Army Ever Be Ready for Battle?

[Freiwillige]

It is a sad and unfortunate series of events that the once most powerful and strongest of military's has been reduced to this. Although globally all western nations once proud forces are in a state of decay. America's included.

Highly debatable:

1870's...I doubt the military capability was equal to that of the British Empire.

1914...I seem to recall Paris never fell.

1939...On land perhaps, but only for a short while and only because they prepared in advance. What say ye regarding control of the skies and the seas?

Now 1815 and the Prussians helping at Waterloo, I would readily concede

Oh, though he meant land army...Hmm, even then, they were always outclassed in one way or another, the French had a bigger army in 1940, the Soviets had better tanks and so forth...

In my days with the service, I got to know quite a few German military personnel - Army and Air Force types. I would have gladly had any one of them covering my back in a firefight or coming to lay waste to those trying to do me in from the air.

Without question...

Define Neo Nazi Politicians? I cannot think of one "National Socialist" Politician.
Name calling is not the solution to a debate. And just for closure, No I would not vote for a "National Socialists" candidate.
