    That’s too many that would. No part of Germany is worth dying for.

      Only 16% say they “definitely would”, and I’m sure that number would be reduced down to 5% if there was a real conflict.

        let’s see what they say after 5-10 years of even more crippling depression and unhinged fascist propaganda though. i’m sure porky can pump these numbers up.

          The average age of germany nears 50. In 5-10 years you may get more old people to voooote for fash propaganda and then collapse their entire economy to scap together 3 million recruits.

              eldery officers are different than elderly ground infantry.

      The “thank you for your service” / bundeswehr paying your rent thing has been too successful.
