German Soldiers Used Broomsticks as Guns in NATO Training Exercise

The German military has definitely seen better days. This latest revelation of their military being forced to use broomsticks in place of weapons during a NATO training exercise is quite ridiculous.

The Sun:

GERMANY'S military is so underfunded its troops used BROOMSTICKS painted black as mock weapons during a Nato defence exercise.

But the highly embarrassing episode, revealed in a leaked report, is just the beginning of the country's woes as it fights to reverse chronic army shortages.

It comes as Donald Trump has vowed to make Chancellor Angela Merkel increase her defence spending to reach the minimum spending obligations all Nato members must adhere to.

General Harald Kujat, a former chief of staff of the German armed forces, later described it as a "huge embarrassment".

The unit was supposed to be ready to deploy whenever a Nato member was threatened, he warned.

He added: "If that is not the case, then both for Nato, and for the Federal Republic of Germany, this is a huge embarrassment," The Telegraph reported.

This is what happens when you let women run a country. It's not like Germany is poor. They're the economic engine of Europe. They have more than enough money to fund their military if they decided to do so. They could also choose to properly fund NATO which they are not. All member nations are supposed to be paying 2 percent of their gross domestic product to be part of the alliance. Germany is well under this number. Apparently Angela Merkel thinks this money is better spent on all her brown monkey pets that she's let in.

And here’s a picture of Ursula von der Leyen the idiotic woman who is in charge of Germany’s military.

Prior to Merkel appointing her Defense Minister, she had no military experience. Not that she as a woman should, but you’d think even in this pozzed era, any woman appointed would have had at least some prior affiliation with the military. It’s an absolute joke that this woman is in charge of Germany’s defense. It’s no wonder why their soldiers are participating in training exercises with broomsticks.

Men like General Erwin Rommel are no doubt rolling around in their graves at what’s become of their once great country.

It’s time to boot out these moronic women and bring back the Wehrmacht. Guaranteed that the Wehrmacht would deal with Merkel’s brown pets in short order!

During the 1920s the German Repubic was in political and economic chaos but its Reichswehr, small and ill-equipped though it was, remained highly professional and fiercely loyal to the Fatherland. They were also secretly training in Soviet Russia, where the Versailles Treaty wasn’t in effect. Is it possible to resurrect the Wehrmacht a third time?

K98 BOOMSTICK.

I’ve been looking for one of these for awhile to add to my collection.
Reasonably priced and not a knockoff.

The Argentine models-if you get lucky and find one-are also definitely worth considering. The ammunition used to be kind of difficult to find,so a lot of them were used as component sources for sporting rifles.

If you happen to run across one of those,it’s worth looking at as well. One of the nicest Mausers ever built,and unless the guy selling it is completely delusional,you should get a very nice action at a reasonable price.

Did they have to shout “Bang, bang” and “I got you!”?

Now you know they can’t waste money on supplying the army when there are migrants and refugees to be fed and housed!

“Guaranteed that the Wehrmacht would deal with Merkel’s brown pets in short order!”…faster than you can say “Labour Camp”. It does appear the cream of masculine men in Germany was lost 1939-45.

They used to drill with shovels; maybe they are getting ready for the final battle…

It is sad when Germany can’t even beat the shit out of the French.

Kinda on topic,since this covers rifles and Dutchmen. The highlight is a little after the 7:00 minute mark,when possibly the best tagline ever invented is introduced:

“With God and the Mauser.”

Which has a ring to it,you have to admit.
