Didn't mean to touch a nerve...
Don't get me started on those bastards. I wish they'd get out of the far left liberal bull-shit business, and stick to geography.
The last issue included a story about migrations, specifically, Pronghorn Antelope migration, and included a picture of a drilling rig with a caption accusing the drillers of impeding the migratory habits of fucking antelope! ARE THEY FUCKING CRAZY!! HAVE THEY EVER BEEN AROUND AN ANTELOPE? THEY GO AROUND, OR THROUGH ENTIRE TOWNS, CITIES, FOR CHRISTSAKES!!!!

...but I love the pretty pictures!
Figuring in Multiplier and Velocity those bases reduce US GDP by about 1-4 trillion per year while increasing the annual GDP of Germany, Japan and S Korea by about the same amount. Good thing we're undertaxed and overemployed.
Germany is further reducing its armed forces from 252,000 to 163,500.....they could maybe field approx. 30,000 combat ready ground troops if push came to shove.
Try Poland which has a much bigger and better equipped army.Germany is further reducing its armed forces from 252,000 to 163,500.....they could maybe field approx. 30,000 combat ready ground troops if push came to shove.
You mean, if, like, Italy attacked?

True but Poland borders Germany but Italy doesn't.Try Poland which has a much bigger and better equipped army.
Italy flies Eurofighter and soon F-35 as a consortium-partner, plus Italy has a real Navy, which Poland has not.
This is a very potent battleship, which soon will enter Italian Navy:
FREMM multipurpose frigate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Italy is one of the most under-rated countries, but, they produce every kind of military stuff from Satellites to Battle Tanks.
Same with Scientific output in European Rankings, Italy is just behind France in scientific output.
Whole Italian Army is better equipped then Polish Army.
Italy is an exporter of 'security', whilst Poland is primarily a receiver of 'security' within the Alliance structure of NATO.
True but Poland borders Germany but Italy doesn't.
My bad sorry,True but Poland borders Germany but Italy doesn't.
Exactly, and my post was not meant as an attack against you.
I read so far about 40 posts from you, and I liked what I read.

My bad sorry,
A) I already mentioned
B) Germany's army is not only small but it has been undertrained and underdisciplined for quite a while. Their best commando force is a police unit.
As one US General said about the Kennedy Goldwater bill that instituted a German style general staff "Who cares how the Germans fight, they haven't won a war in living memory." As an ex-squid I find the US Army consensus about German military prowess almost as confusing as its addiction to special ops and airborne. Their own staff studies show that mission specific training is of greater importance than special ops training and that airborne used as airborne is militarily ineffective except as a screen for good infantry. The problem is that modern heavy weapons do not work well getting into planes much less dropped out of them and light infantry accounts for something like 1% of all kills with artillery and planes accounting for 90% of kills and 9% by crewed served weapons. Airborne has little in the way of crew served weapons such as tanks, IFVs and heavy mortars/machine guns. But the army loves airborne and doing things the German way.
