Oberstabsgefreiter, definitely a veteran...
Also this looks like a Panzergrenadier unit.

But in the end still wearing the beret wrong  ;D

How so? I learned that the badge is supposed to worn between the left eye and the temple. So disregarding the fact that he´s wearing the para beret, he´s doing it how it´s supposed to be done.


Or are you one of those terrible people who positioned the badge right above the eye?  ;D
And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHOWPdnsjCw

footage shown 0:16 to 0:25 is running with double speed but have been dubbed with normal sound. In 5:16 you can see that the tanks are actually blind. They get guided by a person next to the cameraman. Thus the cameraman is directly linked to the observer in combat.

Both the cameraman and observer are actually not fearing enemy fire at all while making a good target themselves up there. They are already within the area that appears to be the enemy territory when the tanks arrive.

If the footage is not staged, it shows a superior attacker killing remnants of syrian rebels in an otherwise cleared area.

Fortunately, not. Seen enough of those people and strangely a larger number of them were officers...

Anyways. Aussies in Nam.

Some sweet masonry on that T-72. I like how they have a few of those "wiggly" patio bricks.

A modern, yet classical backyard approach to HEAT defense :)

Looks like they bought FN Minimi's to the naval infantry. Probably going to replace the MG3 alongside the MPT-76.
