[DrLecta]

Paraden nehme ich auch noch Regelmäßig ab!

Gen.Feldm. Paul von Hindenburg. Das bisher einzige vom deutschen Volk gewählte Staatoberhaupt!

So far the only head of state, that was elected by the german people.

Stimmt...

The goose step was often used as a sign of good military discipline, if you could get men to march like that then you could pretty much get them to do anything.

@Blayney88 It was copied by Russian Soviet army as well as in some former communist countries in Europe before 1989. The Chinese PLA today still march like that too.

The goose step was introduced into the Prussian army even before the reign of Fredrick the Great... so yes it was certainly not a Nazi innovation

@wingerjames

As I understand it most European armies adopted some kind of goose-step march during the early 17th century due to wearing those big, bucket-top boots. The UK Household Cavalry still wear something similar they call "Jackboots"

[DavBlc7]

@wingerjames That true but Russia and China still used it for their armies today.

Ordnung muss sein :-)
