The East German Army - The New Wehrmacht?
I always like to think that if National Socialist Germany won WW2 and survived to the present day, her troops would have looked more like the East German Nationalvolksarmee (NVA) than the West German Bundeswehr which adopted a lot of US uniform designs and equipment. Too bad after reunification, the Germans didn't retain the NVA aesthetic, which was the more traditional German military look. At least Chile's army still retains their German-type uniforms and Stahlhelms for parade and ceremonial wear.

In the early 1950s, West Germany's postwar Federal Border Protection service or 'Bundesgrenzschutz' also greatly resembled the Deutsches Heer from the Third Reich era and were armed with the same weapons.

Last real German Army
1989 NVA parade in East Berlin in front of East German leader Erich Honecker. Mikhail Gorbachev's wife Raisa was also in attendance.
