My mum used to say that when she was a little girl and saw soldiers in German uniform she was amazed over how handsome they looked. But those of the forum members who play Germans in the CM-games probably do that because they maybe say the same about the tanks, halftracks and other technical equipment the Germans had and not so much about how the soldiers looked in uniform.

t34577685 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I used to watch 《Patton》 on TV, a Bridge too far, Saving Private Ryan in the cinema, and a series of war films about the Soviet Union. I prefer the uniforms and weapons of the US, British and Soviet armies, but I am not interested in German ones. people around who are interested in World War II are the opposite of me. I can only find friends with the same preferences on the Internet， You know, it's lonely not to have something in common 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
