Did I hear somewhere recently German soldiers were practising with wooden toy guns because they didn't have enough to go around? Or was that us?

As long as the wood is from sustainable sources, I don't see the issue

I think I read somewhere that in WW2, the Germans made a squadron of wooden planes and set them out on an airfield to look like they had a load of planes at their disposal. Britain sent a few bombers over and dropped some wooden bombs on them!

The voices in your head told you.

Nope. Yet again you're wrong, Johnny.

Germany soldiers are painting broomsticks black to pretend they are guns

Officials said real weapons were not needed for war games in Norway

A bit of use of your friend Google would have stopped you looking like a ninny.

What a waste of time. Everyone knows wooden bombs wooden't work.

Props are frequently used both on exercise and for decoys etc. Nothing new or unusual.

You come on here most days and make an arzz of yourself. Nothing new or unusual.

Except I don't see it reported in The Washington Post or Independent.

Some props were used on a military exercise back in 2015. Well spotted.

Props are often used on simulated exercises.

NATO members have been supplying arms since day one

Supplying arms and actually firing them is something completely different

Maybe it was the Gerrys then.

Lol. It took more than 3/4 of the rest of the worlds' military might to stop them, the last time they decided to put together one of the most powerful and feared military forces, the world has ever seen.
I'd rather have the Gerries on side than not, ta.
