pennywise 0 Posted September 10, 2010 why do we still have forces based in germany ? is it all to do with the war and the cold war ? germany has its own army now doesn''t it ? they were in afganistan and in the papers cos they were just sat around watching dvds whilst our lads were getting blown up..seems a silly waste of money having the forces in germany in these hard times 65 years after the war ended .

Tangible Fixed Assets anyone? 0 Posted September 13, 2010 [quote user="pennywise "]why do we still have forces based in germany ? is it all to do with the war and the cold war ? [/quote]Reasons for keeping units in Germany:1) Cost of building infrastructure in the UK to house units based in Germany, e.g. bases, houses for families etc. 2) Views of German government re the removal of spending in certain parts of Germany if we relocate our forces3) Germany has more land space and therefore areas for our forces to train on.

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,800 Posted September 14, 2010 My flatmate at Uni is a German fella from the Munster area. In fact, he is only in England because his mother met some bloke who was stationed out there in the forces. So yeah, be vigilant, or you might end up bringing home irritating German stepkids. You have been warned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
