German Army Has Only Enough Ammunition To Last 2 Days Of War

Republic War: German Army Facing Severe Arms Shortage, Has Ammo Only To Last 2 Days Of War, Says Top MP 

 “With sick, parental, and education leaves, many units reach the staffing level of only 60% of what they have on paper," German MP  stressed. 

 German armed forces are currently facing severe shortages of ammunition, the Bundestag’s commissioner for the armed forces, Eva Hoegl, revealed on Sunday. The German Army lacks certain basic personal equipment to fight a war, she shockingly noted during an interview with the Bild am Sonntag newspaper. “Without munitions, it’s all nothing,” Hoegl said. Furthermore, she called on the German administration to focus on replenishing the arms depots, particularly during the heightened security risks across the European region from the ongoing Russian offensive in Ukraine.

Update: German army has €20 billion ammo shortfall – top MP (RT)  

WNU Editor: Germany has the wealth and industrial base to quickly build-up its military. And while they are spending some money now (link here), there is a lack of political will, and I also suspect most Germans feel uncomfortable to see Germany re-arming. 

But two days of ammunition?!?!?!? That is crazy.

They should load slimy politicians into the artillery, in case they run out of ammo. Firing people at the enemy has been done before.

Saw a piece about Jim Baker. It covered the negotiation by Jim with his Soviet counterpart about a re-unified Germany joining NATO. America convinced the USSR to give its Ivan Henry.

Maybe that was a mistake. Germany becoming part of NATO allowed them to become backsliding mothers.

If they were a stand alone nation with France to the west (Which attacked Germany for a 1,000 years) and the Warsaw Pact to the east, they might have spent more on the military.

Germany is the weak link in NATO’s wall supporting Ukraine. In fact Germany is the weak link in NATO.

Hopefully, they will be exposed as the useless assclowns they are. After starting two world wars, now they seem intent on sitting the next one out. Assuming they don't switch sides, which I wouldn't put past them. Obviously, they need a very clear wake-up call.

Modern Germans would probably protest and sue their own armed forces in the event of a war.

Sad to see what has become of the once proud German nation. They seem to be imploding from within. Their people are just not smart enough to recognize they have allowed the mechanisms which form national mores and values (movies, television, media, schools, etc.) to push the destruction of the German family and the destruction of German national pride. This is similar to what is occurring the USA.
