I think they were hiding behind the French troops who also ran.

Hate to disappoint you, but I did a search. Don't blame me for the failings of the Freep search engine. What difference does it make if it is three days old if it hasn't been posted yet???

it's going to be fun watching the euro's in the future as the moslems within destroy their countries.

The Germans of this young generation have been broken by Socialism. To them, there is nothing worth fighting for, not even one's own survival.
This was a nation which gave us icons of warriors' strength and nobility; reduced to effeminite wards of the state. My heart is sick for them.

"We were acting exactly according to the rules," said Col. Dieter Hintelmann, who heads the German KFOR contingent in Prizren. He added, "We love the Serbians, they are so angular! In fact, I was too busy loving some angular Serbians to do the tedious fighting. Fighting is so banal."

German troops 'hid like rabbits' during rioting (Kosovo)Having lived in Germany for 8 years this doesn't surprise me one bit. For one thing, what can you expect from an army whose "uniform" (and I use the word loosely) looks like a green jump-suit a grease-monkey might wear?

Close to what I was thinking- that these Germans must have been trained by the French....

Evidently their job is to prevent ethnic Serbs from defending themselves.

Well I'm not going to search for every single word in the article I want to post. As you can see, the article I posted has a different headline than the rest. You should be getting on BayouCoyote and elfman2 for posting the exact same article.

When those troops had been killed in Afghanistan, I was astounded to see the cofins in Germany driven on top of what looked like dump trucks. I kid you not.
