Bataillon / Battalion Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Bataillon / Battalion:

The Germans have done wonderful work. Not long ago, a German battle group battalion conducted a very impressive counterinsurgency operation in a portion of Baghlan province. I think these are the first counterinsurgency operations conducted by any German element after World War II. And they did a very impressive job. David Petraeus
