Ostheer Suggestions / Re: Retreat button for tanks.

I wouldn't like a retreat button for tanks. Because if it is near destruction, I'd rather drive it home myself .. with the front armor in enemy direction.
If it would retreat, the tank will turn around and be a lot more vulnerable to enemy anti tank weapons.

Kids in Germany do learn English and French if they want to

No that's wrong they must learn English.They begin learning English at the elementary school.

That "if they want to" was actually for the French part. Sorry for the confusion

No, most Germans are not good at English, they don't even teach it in school and everything on tv is dubbed.

Here's a small example:

German Coast guard trainee

And another one

The worlds funniest commercial

Lol, the first one is a commercial. Kids in Germany do learn English and French if they want to. But I must admit: There are a lot of Germans who can speak English very well .. and there are a lot of who can't. I've been learning English since I was 11 and even extended my knowledge with a Cambridge English course, though I don't know the meaning of all words. Some I have to look up, too.

I'd like the Ostheer to speak German, too. I think that many people, who don't speak or understand German, would love that, too.

Oh and to the part with "mein Herr". We actually don't say sir, but we say the rank of the officer.
Like:
You say: Yes, sir.
We say: Yes, Herr Feldwebel.
