As An American Military Policeman stationed in Stuttgart West Germany From 1980-1983 I can Honestly say we feared Combat with East German Troops more then Russian....This Parade shows How Truly Disciplined they were....Salute to a one time Foe...and Respect!!!

They also made some of THE best AK's, and magazines among other military weapons of the Warsaw pact. I know DDR AK-47's and AKM's are very desirable here in the USA. Plus the DDR magazines are some of the best made. I often wonder sometimes how far the USSR could have gone had there been a full blown conventional war in Europe. Im sure the east Germans would have been one heck of a foe to go up against. Crazy how today we're essentially in another cold war. I was born in 82 so I didn't get to really experience the cold war. I do remember bits and pieces from school in those days. I remember our teacher once a week pulling down the map of the USSR, and explaining how lucky we were to be Americans. I remember watching Red Dawn in the late 80's, and how our gym teacher just assumed all of us boys would join the military. Looking back at it now, the entire gym class was set up mainly to support just the guys 😆. I remember all the girls just sitting against the wall while we all did the obstacle course over and over again. I remember watching the wall fall with my parents on our tiny 13" TV while eating dinner. We lived in the middle of nowhere and only got 1 channel 'CBS' . I remember the gulf war for sure. Many of my friends father's went over there. I remember in school we would watch it on TV. Then I'd watch the news with my parents while eating dinner. I've studied the cold war a lot, and it's very interesting how we're heading right back into one. Only this time I don't think it will stay cold. Not for long.

Von „Kampfkraft“ kann man hier nicht reden. Die NVA war da um den restlichen Warschauer Pakt starten, bei einer Invasion Zeit zum mobilisieren zu verschaffen. Alleine hätte die NVA nie lange durchgehalten. Die Bundeswehr war mit über 500.000 Mann deutlich schlagkräftiger und hätte es mit mehr als nur der NVA aufnehmen können. Und wenn du denkst, dass die NVA Ehre hatte, dann kannst du deinen Pass sofort abgeben! Das waren kaltblütige Mörder, welche selbst ihrem eigenen Volk das Bajonett in die Brust rammten. Ekelhafte Volksverräter, genauso wie diese Monster, die in der Wehrmacht gedient haben!

In fact in 89 a month before the balloon went up we spoke to some civilians in a bar in east berlin who told us they were headed down to Hungary. They didn’t say why. Only that something big was gonna happen. That was rare for civilians to speak to us. We thought nothing of it. That same month we went to West Germany by train & it’s funny coz be had a conversation about the wall. And I distinctly remember saying that we would never see it come down in our lifetime. When we got back to West Berlin, within days it was all kicking off.

This was done to insure that none of them would collapse due to weakened blood pressure.

No, there was a button near the foot of each guard. If either guard needed to switch hands he shifted the front of his boot over the button and pressed it and the buzzer/bell would sound The other guard would acknowledge with his own button. Then, in time, each would change the their weapon to the other side. It was not a 'secret'. It was loud enough to be heard by anyone standing near the memorial.

Mario, ich war 1967 und 1968, bei der Luftwaffe der Bundeswehr. Ich kann berichten, dass wir es in drei Monaten nicht schafften ein Lied ordentlich zu singen, auf Kompanieebene. Es wurde aber auch nicht verlangt. Was verlangt, wurde, wurde auch geliefert, auch bei der Bundeswehr. Wir waren mehr Buerger in Uniform, laessig aber nicht nachlaessig. Ich war sehr laessig, aber ich wusste was ich zu tun hatte, an mir waere Niemand vorbeigekommen.... Aber, einem Schiessbefehl (nicht an der Front) waere ich nicht nachgekommen, wann geschossen wird bestimmte ich, und ich war 22 Jahre alt. Das sahen nicht alle so, um nicht zu sagen die Wenigsten. Viele in meiner Kompanie hatten einen militaerischen Hintergrund in der Familie, Offiziere alle. Gehorchen war keine Frage, bei Vielen genuegte nur ein Wort, und die haetten geschossen, auf Befehl. Danach ein Bier, glaube es mir. Nach der Bundeswehrdienstzeit zog ich nach Westberlin, machte nie einen Reservedienst, hatte meinen Wehrpass beim Kreiswehrersatzamt abgeben, und die Plakette auf den Tresen gelegt, Ich sagte nur ich verlege meinen Wohnsitz nach Westberlin. Der Tresenmann sagte, so einfach geht das nicht, dass muessen sie beantragen.Ich sagte,: Im Politischen Unterricht wurde uns gelehrt, dass es die Freizuegigkeit gibt, oder habe ich das falsch verstanden? Aber ich bin ja nicht so, und schrieb auf einen Zettel,:Teile ihnen mit, das ich meinen Wohnsitz nach Westberlin verlege. Der Tresenmann schnappte nach Luft, und ich ging raus, und NIE wieder zurueck. Ich war 2 Jahre bei der Luftwaffe, und hatte meine Pflicht erfuellt, fuer immer. In Westberlin schloss ich mich den aufruehrerrischen Studenten(APO) an. Dann wurde ich Kommunist, mit Partei und allem Drum herum. Viele DDR Besuche, viele Diskussionen, mit DDR Funktionaeren, immer grosse Klappe, aber viele Freunde, Genossen /inen. Arbeitete in Westberlin in der E-Industrie, was ich dort erlebte wuerde Buecher fuellen. In der Partei war ich Kassierer, kassierte die Monatsbeitraege (3 Mark) bei Hausbesuchen. Kannte viele alte Genossen persoenlich, man erzaehlte mir alles, das ganze Leben. Ich war der Kontakt zur Neuzeit, ich merkte es, es war bedrueckend. Ich wollte aber keine alten Genossen betreuen, das war nicht mein Wunsch.. Ich machte mich davon, und gleich weit weg.. bin seit 1985 in Suedamerika, habe mein Geld als Seemann verdient auf Internationalen Schiffen, habe sogar Haus und Hof und Familie (in Berlin 2 Zimmer mit Ofenheizung) , man staunt selbst. Vielleicht sah ich den Zusammenbruch 1985 vorraus. Den Fall der Mauer sah ich im Fernsehen, dass ist jetzt schon wieder ueber 30 Jahre her. Ich haette vorhersagen koennen, was heute passiert, nicht im Detail...aber...Es muss passieren, weil es Gesetzmaessig ist. Kommunisten haetten es verhindern koennen, aber mit dem Kommunismus gibt es keinen Porsche, kein addidas, keine ROLEX und und und (oder doch?).. Aber die Huette wird nicht von Irren angesteckt, heruntergebrannt, und es wird auch nicht mit A Bomben gezuendelt. Wer nur davon spricht, kommt hinter Gitter(lange). Viel mehr hatten wir Kommunisten nicht auf dem Schirm ........! Vielleicht war es mehr als wir selbst ahnten? Habe die Ehre

@@hubertkaiser8581 Da haste mir aber einen tiefgründigen und vor allem gehaltvollen Text geschrieben! Danke dafür! Ich bin '74 nahe Frankfurt/O. geboren. Als typischer DDR-Bengel fand ich eben diese Paraden sehr geil! (zum Leidwesen meines Vaters) Jedenfalls kam ich auf Wunsch '95 zur Fallschirmtruppe bei Oldenburg. Glücklicherweise wurde zu diesem Zeitpunkt das olle BW-oliv durch Flecktarn ersetzt und mussten nicht so furchtbar herumhampeln, wie Generationen vor uns. Das war's dann aber auch. Der Bruch mit jeglicher Tradition hatte begonnen und nach 22 Monaten freiwillig verlängerten Wehrdienst habe ich die BW so ziemlich enttäuscht verlassen. Obwohl ich in meiner Zeit einen besonders guten Ausbildungsstand erreichen konnte, habe ich die Sinnlosigkeit der Truppe erkannt. Soldaten waren auf einmal völlig überflüssig! Jetzt bin ich 47 und sitze hier immer noch an der Oder. Wenn ich hier keine Verbindlichkeiten hätte, dann würde ich hier auch sofort abpfeifen! Nun gut. Sehr coole Story von dir und an einer Strandbar hätten wir uns bestimmt super unterhalten! Aber bei der blöden Tipperei ist das alles viel zu müßig! Ich wünsche dir noch einen schönen Sonntag!!!🤘

Both German armies weren‘t as German as the previous Wehrmacht or Reichswehr but the NVA was more traditional than the Bundeswehr but not „more German“. Both had their traditions rooted in the Napoleonic wars and saw the 6th coalition war as an act of freeing themselves from a foreign power by sheer willpower. Despite both of the armies trying (TRYING!) to distance themselves from the Wehrmacht both the NVA and Bundeswehr had Wehrmacht uniforms. The NVA kept the general cut of the jacket, the helmet and the colour (Feldgrau) and for the Volksmarine the uniforms of the Kriegsmarine (though the captains had dark blue jackets for some reason). The Bundeswehr kept the M38 Stahlhelm for their paratroopers (Fallschirmjäger), maintained the uniforms of the old Luftwaffe and those of the Kriegsmarine for the new Luftwaffe and Bundesmarine. The new M92 combat helmet is also heavily influenced by the original Stahlhelm. Both German armies were still pretty German but the NVA had more tradition and still celebrated in the style of the Wehrmacht. Both were quite a mixed bag. The Bundeswehr has the Wachbattalion (Guard battalion) which is the official successor to the 1st Prussian Guard Regiment on foot while the NVA marched in the signature Prussian Paradeschritt. Curiously though, the Bundeswehr was (for a short time) known as the „Bundeswehrmacht“ (Federal Wehrmacht) or „Neue Wehrmacht“ (new Wehrmacht). Here you can hear it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3mugoOQac-Lqpo

@@scanida5070 Thanks for the link. Interesting. But I think it was the british journalists little joke to refer to the Bundeswehr as the new Wehrmacht. Adenauer who was german chancellor at the time would never have allowed the military to call itself that. You see he came from the Rhineland and detested anything even remotely prussian. Also he was catholic, and there was a degree of animosity between protestant prussia and the catholic south, dating back to Bismarck and the north german confederation. I know that Prussia was abolished in 1947, but culture is culture. And did you look at the uniforms in the video? If anything, they looked american, except for the field cap. No, I don't think that the Bundeswehr is a proper german army,

@@daveanderson3805 It really was called New Wehrmacht. That’s because “Wehrmacht” was a common term for army in German. “Luftwaffe” is still a common term in Germany for airforce and that’s how our airforce is called. This German news reel refers to the Bundeswehr as Wehrmacht as well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGGUmp-hl6-Ud80 The uniforms you saw in these previous videos were still Americanised though these didn’t stay for long. Everything was “Germanised”. The only thing “ungerman” maybe were the helmets which looked nearly identical to the American M1 but they were actually designed independently and were based of off a Swedish model and the American M1. This video shows the farewell of General Adolf Heusinger (yes, THE Heusinger), everything looks pretty German: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHLYkoOintJ0eNU Like I said, the Bundesmarine also wore Kriegsmarine uniforms as seen here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/janWZJaAhpiWeLc The (new) Luftwaffe first wore dark uniforms before switching to the traditional dark blue in the 60s. images.app.goo.gl/Ym6jkVTr1jqCE1c88 Also quite notable is the implementation of the M92 which was intentionally based of off the original Stahlhelm which is clearly visible: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIXYq4usgdBqd7M On special occasions, the Wachbattalion also wears Prussian uniforms: images.app.goo.gl/Jd2UpGnRR6qiinzZ7 I apologise if I overwhelmed you a bit with all these links, I just wanted to proof my point :) Of course, like I said, the Bundeswehr wasn’t as traditional as the NVA but still German.

Nein bitte, die Bundeswehr soll nicht marschieren wie die NVA. Die meisten sehen es nicht ein, aber die Bundeswehr marschiert ganz in Preußischer Tradition, denn die Bundeswehr gehört zur leichten Infanterie(Jägertruppe) und diese sind nie im Stechschritt marschiert. Noch dazu marschiert die NVA im Sowjetischen Stil, sieht man an der geballten Faust und dem Sowjetischen Gewehr, wir deutsche haben die Handfläche gestreckt beim marschieren. Interessanter weise nutzt die Bundeswehr bei nicht offiziellen Anlässen sogar manchmal den Stechschritt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXXZpaltiMaiqaM schau bei 7:45 oder auch hier kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6i3ZYCCm9mFnJo.

Und wozu braucht man im Stechschritt marschierende Paraden? Da halte ich es für deutlich wichtiger, dass die Soldaten im Gefecht funktionieren. Und die Bundeswehr hat mittlerweile etliche male gezeigt, dass sie auch angesprengt, eingekreist und unter stundenlangen Feuergefechten noch funktioniert. Und DAS ist es, worauf es am Ende ankommt. Dass sich irgendwelche Leute im Fernsehen Stechschritt anschauen wollen, ist wohl das unwichtigste von allem... Und mal abgesehen davon, die Drillteams der BW können auch marschieren. Bis auf ein paar Ausnahmen, machen sie es halt nur nicht im Stechschritt.

I don’t think the pact forces except for the fanatical ones would have died for soviet adventures. But the Slavic nucleus of the USSR (Russians + Ukrainians + Belarusians) would have definitely fought to the last man and the last bullet if they were convinced that they were under “attack” . It’s a shame that such close and brotherly people (Russians and Ukrainians) are fighting today. But I am somewhat happy that Russians are taking extreme measures to avoid civilian casualties even at great risk to their lives. I don’t think any American tank would have stopped in the middle of a war zone to avoid civilian deaths. It’s obvious that Russians despite having the ability to use the American “shock and awe” tactics are holding back a lot. The Ukrainian and Russian delegations are meeting at the border today. Hope there is a ceasefire soon and Ukraine returns to mother Russia.

What amazes me the most, apart from their discipline and excellent "standard of saluting" is how they managed to retain the Prussian style of dress and drill. There would have been some tough negotiations with the Soviet command. From all accounts, they were a very effective force. The officer corps were treated dismally by the Western authorities after re-unification.

There are docus on KZbin which describe the process... The old Prussian generals basically presented the Russians with a fait accompli and things were still too ucked fup in the USSR for them to really get angry and oppose the plan. There's a funny anecdote told by one of the original generals that when they went to the Soviet occupation forces HQ in all their Prussian regalia the Soviet guards were so surprised they didn't even move, either to salute or to block entry.

Actually, the suggestion to reinstate traditional uniforms came from the Soviet military. The early uniforms were modelled on the Soviet style, and according to one documentary the Soviet minister of defense (Bulganin?) reprimanded Heinz Hoffman for not wearing a uniform that was based on German traditions.

The Bundeswehr has also adopted the original Prussian drill regulations. However, this states that only heavy infantry uses goose-stepping. The Bundeswehr has only light infantry units. It would just be wrong to goose step them. That's all. All other commands and marches are still original.

It's funny to see people writing about it being the last true German army, but fail to notice that the whole style of the 'goose step' and arm movements feel Russian in nature. The Reichswehr and the Wehrmacht didn't swing their right arms like crazies and didn't hold the buttstock of the gun higher at the belt. The older style felt orderly yet more relaxed and more natural than the style the NVA was using.

If you watched my other video on this subject, the NVA did in fact use Prussian military drill before they adopted a Soviet style of swinging the arms. The goose step remains German.

@@MaximusandHistory Actually I haven't. I just notice it based on what I'm seeing here in this particular video. EDIT: Ok, I've seen it now actually, but really it's still quite different. The NVA style has a tendency to swing the arm quite a bit backwards, whereas the style of the Reichswehr and the Wehrmacht didn't.

@@geewhiz5926 Nonsense- the West was Americanized very quickly after 1945 and lost German identity fast. The east didn't really Russify BELOW the official surface and remained far more "German"! But what do I know ... I only lived in East and West Germany :) What we have now is the continuation of Americanized West Germany without any identity. The last bit of "Germany" disappeared in 1990. What is left is just an economic entity.

East Germany has its place in European history as a maritime country. Would be interesting to find some materials here e/g on the DSR, owners/operators of the famous 'Friendship of Nations', or 'Voelkerfreundschaft'. The ca. 12.000 ton, Swedish built motor vessel entered history through its ramming the 'Andrea Doria' in July 1956. 😊
