Almost unnoticed by the public, on July 12 the Bundeswehr (Armed Forces) issued “Supplementary information on the guidelines for understanding and maintaining traditions in the Bundeswehr.” The document was signed by Lieutenant General Kai Rohrschneider, head of the Department for Operational Readiness and Support of the Armed Forces in the Defence Ministry. It explicitly names top officers of the Nazi Wehrmacht as “tradition-forming” and “identity-creating” for the Bundeswehr, today’s German army.
Wehrmacht traditions, eh? Soo inflating and fudging numbers, feeding troops drugs, giving fat contracts to private industries coincidentally owned by friends and supporters of the political leadership to the point of parts of the same model vehicles not fitting together, overfocus on fashion and propaganda and being largely only good at indiscriminate murder of defenseless civilians and then whitewashing said crimes?
Sounds about right or am I forgetting anything?
