For the first time since 1944, there are no US tanks in Germany

[QUOTE=EvilSkydiver;40248175]No, it's an UZI. But they do carry HK USP-9.[/QUOTE]

You sure? I remember hearing they carried MP7s.

Hold on let me clean my eyes...
... yeah they where Uzi's

hint not every country uses it's own guns. the tankers main side arm is the M9 which is Italian.

Same applies to all equipment.

The ROTC unit at my college still uses PASGT helmets.

[QUOTE=Tippmann357;40245646]It's going to be like when the Polish rammed cavalry into panzers.[/QUOTE]

That was a myth never happened (fabricated by German generals).

yea say what you will about the polish military, but they weren't going to charge cavalry into tanks. that's ignoring what cavalry were even used for back in ww2. hell, germany had something like 6 cavalry divisions in the war and used millions of horses and mules. even then, horses were useful for certain things.

[QUOTE=urbanmonkey;40244701]Bittersweet, it's good that we're finally pulling out of there, our presence seemed to have lost it's importance some time ago (practical presence, I'm sure our presence still has symbolic meaning). But I also know that many of those stationed there had become embedded in German society, and a lot of Germans had made good friends with the American troops stationed there. Hopefully they can all keep in touch.[/QUOTE]

i knew a American A-10 Pilot who was Stationed in his A-10 Squadron in Frankfurt he was a cool guy

Germany has manufactured and used full size UZIs for a long time now. You're right though, they are being phased out.
