Come on guys , for the past fifty odd years the Brits and the US have been having temper tantrums anytime there was a mention of the German Nato forces having decent weapons going into action , (dreams of the Wehrmacht (sp?) marching down Pall Mall to Admiralty Arch ). So now they are being allowed a limited role in Afghanistan (Because the Brits and Yanks need help) and they screw up , the German forces are on a leaning curve , not being allowed to fight in combat since 45, mistakes happen , As per usual the politicians jump in (this time Angela Merkal) and make asses of themselves .
