@TigerMilitia Yeah I've always wondered what the German perspective of the war was like.

@JayZar12 yeah dude i like looking at combat footage from like the taliban and the germans to see what it was like for them. I mean, i love america like crazy but i like looking at it through a different perspective.

I love the GI, on the way to "battle", desperately avoiding stepping in a puddle and getting his boots dirty. Then, as the squad is "fired upon", a few hit the dirt, the rest just stand around and talk. Really? That's the problem with "reenacting". Absolutely no attempt at realism. And the icing on the cake? Soldiers actually picking up spent en bloc clips during a "firefight". Yeah, that's realistic. Big boys playing army. That's an insult to the real men who fought and died. Grow up.
