A new Bundeswehr video of Leopard 2 A6 at Ohrdruf training grounds. Note the Splitterschutzwesten worn by the crew and the AA tripods for close-in airdefense. Some good ideas for the weatherings fans.

Thanks Hans-Hermann for the link, some good stuff there !
What were the troops cooking? Are those typical field rations?

Hi Tom,
yes that´s German MRE called Einmannpackung or EPA. Germany still relies on open fire to heat their rations.
