These parades by the East German military just didn't take place on one day, there was a week of rehearsals beforehand and the Allies on the otherside of the Wall would be able to attend these rehearsals (informally) via Checkpoint Charlie. I attended the rehearsals in 1987 as a young Trooper in the British Army. The day I was there we witnessed two tanks and one personnel carrier broke down. All the military hardware on display was gleaming, absolutely squeaky clean with either a fresh coat of paint or spent the best part of a day being polished. The East German soldiers (Eastie Beasties) would be a mix of being nice to us, or would tell us to F off in German. I struck up a conversation with one lad, probably the same age as me, he asked me in German where I was from, and he then asked if I followed Manchester United! I told him I didn't but that he could come and watch a match with me. He laughed (cos he was trapped behind the Iron Curtain). Bizarre now when I think about it. Thousands of East German soldiers, posed and trained to fight their way through into the West alongside Warsaw Pact troops and here I was have a laugh with one such soldier. Told me what I knew at that age, that it was all a game played by politicians on all sides, the ordinary folk would be the ones to suffer in the event of a war. Same applies today.

@solideshalbwissen Жыл бұрын

I remember one time at one of the parade rehearsals, my old man chatted up a couple of you guys. I think they might have been liaison people, not sure though. In uniform and had binos. I remember distinctly how weirded out I was that the enemy was allowed to spy on all the military hardware and how they were normal people that you could talk to (not evil aggressors). They were very polite, but distant. Like professional, not too keen on fraternizing. I kind of miss the parades, a couple dozen MBTs crawling through a dense urban area is an awesome experience.

I was there, but upstream of the review stand with the dignitaries. Wasn't able to enter the area opposite the dignitaries because we didn't have a pass (ausweiss). After the parade, I was near the band. A General (he had General's Arabesque collar patches), probably in charge of the band, was so happy, and he was walking amonst the bandsmen backslapping them and shaking their hands. It was my first and only visit to East Germany.

I'm from Vietnam. '70, '80 of 20 century, there were many Vietnamese went to DDR ("Đông Đức" In Vietnamese) for studying or working That time, Vietnamese loved DDR's products such as Mifa bycicle, Simson motorcycle... I remenbered that: Not many slots for going to DDR, people tried to get a slot to DDR because when return from DDR, they earned more money than the other counties. But after "Berlin wall - 1989", many Vietnamese stayed at DDR and became Deutsche.

To this day, the descendants of the Vietnamese Guest Workers/Contract Workers (GDR nomenclature) are among the most liked (if not THE most liked) non-germans in the east. Unlike Turks, Arabs and the like your people have shown time and time again productivity, adherence to the law and willingness to integrate. Literally the only foreign populace where the now 30ish year old speak accent free german and more often than not are named "Daniel" and "Maximilian" (the only "Friedrich" under 40 I have ever met was a son of a Vietnamese family btw). I personally have not met ONE descendant of a Vietnamese family that was unemployed. Case in point: my somewhat racist father-in-law has nothing but good to say about the Vietnamese. "Polite and hard working people they are", in his words.

A mix of Prussian marching traditions, thrown in with a mix of some Soviet Marching traditions.

@MaximusandHistory Жыл бұрын

Correct.

@OutnBacker Жыл бұрын

Actually, the Soviet marching traditions are classic Russian drill from the empire period. Man y Eurpoean/Russian parade dirll is from the Prussian School of Ferderick the Great (1740's) What we call the goose step isn't uniquely German, but was practised in special parade performances for visiting dignitaries and monarchs well before this present era. Even the Chinese and N. Koreans have thier version of Prussin Drill, and probably do it best. Their training is brutal - literally. The US is the only major power that does not goose step, although the Marines do have a kind of high step they use when on the parade deck. Mostly, it's a very precise heel-toe stiff backed cadence step. No bobbing heads, no slumped shoulders, no swinging arms, no bored facial expressions, sleeves rolled tight, lots of well developed biceps. The US Marines are by far the best at marching discipline from company to company across the entire Corps. They ALL look as good as these German troops, without being special parade detachments.

The goose step march originated in Prussia. It was introduced into the Russian army by Prussian military advisers hired to modernize the Czars army. The Red army inherited it from it's predecessor. Under Hitler the march was abandoned by the Wehrmacht just before WW2. The West German Bundeswehr has never used it. The East German army following their Soviet masters reintroduced it.

@MaximusandHistory 8 ай бұрын

And just to be clear the Soviet Army reserved the goose step only for drill training, state ceremonies, and the changing of the guard. Regular troops didn't goose step but instead used the "marching step" or "походный шаг."

In this very moment, I was sitting on my sofa in West Berlin watching the parade in east German TV. My apartment in Moabit was just a few kilometers away from the parade. It really gave me the shivers down the spine. All this Prussian military ceremony. All these missiles and tanks. And in the same moment, hearing them talking about world peace. It was quite an absurd situation and sometimes nowadays, I think it was just a nightmare. As if it wasn't real.

That's very fascinating to hear your anecdote! I am surprised West Germans watched these events live on TV! Did you always watch these parades every year? Or were you curious to see what was going on the other side of town? It definitely seems ironic that they were talking about world peace while parading tanks and missile systems on the streets of Karl Marx Allee. However it seems that was the ordinary thing back in the day. The Bundeswehr also had military parades with tanks and missile systems but they were not a frequent sight compared to the GDR.

Coming from West Germany, I moved to Berlin to study in 1987. Before I had no contact to East Germany, and it was very fascinating for me. A German country but totally different. They reported about the same events, but with different conclusions and from a totally different political perspective. And actually, I found the parade quite frightening. So massive.

Germany post-WW2 was not even mentioned once during my entire tenure in secondary education! In fact, most people don't really have any clue about Cold War history in general (which in my opinion is disturbing) considering it wasn't that long ago and how relevant it is in today's geopolitics.

The drummers rotating their mallets as they strike the drum is a late DDR invention (1980's), before that, they hit the drums in Prussian style. It seems in the last decade of the NVA, a few Prussian traditions were dropped (Closed Collar Tunics, Exerzierschritt in 1990, and drummers hitting the snare drums). For most of the NVA's existence, the Musikkorps maintained the most Prussian doctrine and drill whilst the regular troops used mix of Prussian and Soviet traditions. I personally love the DDR's style of rotating the mallets, it looks so awesome and unique, but untraditional.

@@user-ok3nn5op6y That's nonsense. The way Germany was arranged after WWII served to destroy Prussia to the maximum extent possible. This was not an accident. It is very clear a goal of the USSR was to destroy the Prussian streak in the German national character. A lot of historic Prussia ended up permanently in Poland, where it was emptied of Germans. Russia even kept part of East Prussia for itself (Kaliningrad) filling it with Russians. The Hohenzollern homeland, Brandenburg, was consigned to East Germany, where all large land holdings were expropriated, thereby destroying what remained of the Prussian aristocracy. West Germany was therefore founded on a non-Prussian foundation. Adenauer was a Rhinelander. West Germany was therefore largely a non-Prussian German state (yes, Rhineland was one of the parts of Prussia after 1815, but no one ever confused the Rhineland for the real Prussia, given its large Catholic population). And interestingly, and again this was not an accident, when the USSR agreed to German reunification, it did so under the condition that the DDR land expropriations could not be reversed. The USSR was determined that the wooden stake remain in the Prussian heart. And thus the Prussian heritage of the current Germany was, to the maximum extent possible, permanently eliminated. Former Prussian aristocrats have sought to recover their lands in the former East Germany, and post-unification German courts have agreed - this cannot be reversed.
