    German soldiers in sense of humour shocker

    The Bundeswehr bosses recently banned a shop at Camp Marmal from selling these t-shirts. Wearing them has also been banned.



    Translation: "Thou Shalt Not Steal".


    A previously banned t-shirt read "Granddad never got this far east".


    All this has caused a minor ruckus in the German media. Poor Germans. If they hadn't invaded Poland, they wouldn't have to worry about being so politically correct.

    That's funny, shame that some prissy PC type bans them.

    The boxheads destroyed two hijacked fuel tankers in AFG.

    Clicky

    You may recall the German defence minister resigned over it.

    Why were there so many Afghans in the tanker?

    Nice one Herr Boxhead, like the T shirts, great stuff.
    Everyone deserves a second chance, except those who try to shaft me and fail.

    ‘Good God!’ he laughed, and slowly filled his pipe,
    Wondering ‘why he always talked such tripe’.

    They didn't like our Adolph Hitler - World Tour T Shirts either. Shame really because they had London and Moscow crossed out, always made me laugh.
