The Bundesgrenschutz is basically the most Wehrmacht of all the West German security services. They used the same Stahlhelm as the Wehrmacht, the same cut of uniform as the Wehrmacht, the same boots as the Wehrmacht (just with an additional "democratic boot buckle" to make it not-Wehrmacht), used the same guns as the Wehrmacht, and are allowed to sport the same awards as the Wehrmacht (cleansed of any past symbolism obviously)...

The story of how the G3 came into being is one of my favorites. Basically Germany wanted to employ FN to provide them with FAL rifles, but the Belgians (to some degree understandably considering the history) said no, so Germany basically said "Fine, we'll make our own FALs!" and developed the G3.

Germany initialy had some licensed built Heckler & Koch Gewher 1 (FALs), however H&k bought CETMEs rifle reinforced to withstand NATOs 7.62x51mm pressure, it was then put to compete in Bunderswehr to replace their G1s, with CETMEs rifle winning the competition nd deseguinated a G3

You imply that the G3 and FAL are the same. This is false. They couldn't be more different, and have nothing to do with each other, beyond using the same caliber cartridges. Completely different. No connection at all.

@kutter_ttl6786 4 ай бұрын
There's a bit of misinformation in this thread that needs to be cleared up. The newly formed Bundeswehr initially adopted the G1 as their standard rifle, and the Belgians were willing to sell it to the Germans (they ultimately sold 100K of them). However, once the topic of licence production came up that's when the Belgians refused, and the Germans instead took to adapting the CETME rifle into the G3.

FG-42 is basically an automatic rifle that does the job of a standard infantryman rifle (Kar98k) and a light machine gun (MG42) at the same time. Ultimately its a specialist weapon for paratroopers as its multi role weapon that sacrificed durability and cost to make a weapon that could be carried by paratoopers on combat jumps.

The olive green uniforms and the M1 helnets were still widely used until the mid 90s. The only Flecktarn equipment I had in 1994 were the Kampfrucksack (battle backback) and helmet cover, which was designed for the M92 helmet and therefore didn't really fit the old M1 steel helmets. As far as I remember units like the German-French Brigade. My sergeant who transfered from that brigade to my artillerie unit even had to return his Flecktarn uniform and get the old olive green uniform. During my basic training due to equipment shortage my unit (and probably many more) got AK bayonets that we, of course, couldn't fit to our G3 assault rifles, which were from the early 1960s. So, it is possible that my father who was in the same unit as I during his basic training was trained on the same rifle as I. 😂

The U.S. Army's 1980s and 1990s era Kevlar Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops Helmet was sometimes called the "Fritz helmet" for its resemblance to the German Stahlhelm. The U.S. Army and Marines have continued to use a design akin to the PASGT heltmet with MICH TC-2000 Combat Helmet and Lightweight Helmet, respectively. The Chinese People's Liberation Army soldiers still used M1935 helmets which were captured from the Chinese Nationalist Army during the Chinese Civil War until the 1970s.

17:50 The opening of the borders happened on Nov. 9th 1989 in reaction of a statement by Günter Schabowski during a press conference between 18:53 and 19:01, where he mistakenly declared that GDR citizens could travel to West Germany, and West Berlin, omitting the provisio that that would constitute a permanent emigration. The news was spread through West German media, specifically the main news segment Heute of the public broadcaster ZDF at 19:17. The news spread like wildfire throughout East Berlin and the rest of the GDR within reach of western media. East German citizens started to gather in huge crowds at the six checkpoints, until the checkpoint Bornholmer Straße was opened on 22:45 to relieve the mounting pressure. Thus the Wall came down on Nov. 9th.

I collect a lot of modern and cold-war era camo patterns and field jackets, and by far the best looking contemporary stuff is German. The Flecktarn pattern is just pure fire, and East German Strichtarn is pure drip. West German gear is definitely monotone, but it just looks absolutely sleek, especially their Forstergrun Polizei jackets.

A whole section you could've added; Friedensheer. Inbetween the end of war and 1919, the Friedensheer kept peace in Germany, they had blue lines on their uniforms. There's a wiki page on them I'm sure of it.

It would’ve been nice if you also showed their Air Force and their special police force modern day uniforms in the end because of their headgear and armor including using chainmail at some points

A few points to the uniform, various units still use the 1990 helmet and only the ksk has the g95 while the infantry will get their hands on them in 2024-2026, also we have different uniforms for different Branches, we have the lochkoppel from the 2nd World war for non infantry units, then we have mobast for infantry and idz for panzergrenadiere and ksk

Great vid, but I have a small gripe: the colour of the Wehrmacht M 1935 field tunic was a greenish-grey. This colour was introduced in July 1929 and given the traditional but inaccurate title Feldgrau (field grey). Trousers were mid-grey. The Wehrmacht adopted full mid-grey uniforms with the M 1940 field uniform in 1940/41. And another aspect you didn't cover was the early field uniform of the Bundeswehr in the 1950s, which used extensive camouflage.

Haha the Weimar Republic soldier standing in front of the 200.000.000 Reichsmark bread stand is a nice detail and reference to the hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic in 1925/1926.
