You are the United States Marine Corps.  You are the bad-ass, locked, cocked, and ready to rock, high speed bullet stoppers. You get shot at much more often than is reasonable.  This doesn't really bother you.

What the hell is a Bundeswehr???http://www.swfup.com/uploads/swf-146111.swf

Bundeswehr is the German Federal Defense Force. It's basically the Army(Heer), Navy(Marine), Air Force(Luftwaffe), Joint Service Support Command(Streitraftebasis), and Central Medical Services(Zentraler Sanitätsdienst) Branches all in one.

It's also the strongest military force in western Europe, and what I got.  Incidentally, I love how they call Angela Merkel a crazy dictator.  Because they're exactly right.

They'd better be prepared to change it when Lafontaine or Gysi gains the Chancellorship.

You are the British Special Air Service. You are the elite, secret, reclusive team that busts is silent until they erupt in gunfire and then are gone like magic. You are among the best of the best in training, equipment, and capability, but you spend entirely too much time fighting your Irish brethren.

You are the French Army. You haven't done anything cool since Napoleon was in charge. You own many rifles that have been never fired, dropped once, for sale, cheap. Nobody likes you but everybody keeps you around for the brie.

The French reputation for surrender comes from one event, the Battle of France.  In that conflict their High Command was dominated by the defensive, timid, and kind of dumb Gamelin, and their armor, while the individual units were more powerful than the early Panzers, was dispersed in an infantry-support role.  If the French Army had been properly commanded, it would have been able to resist the Germans far longer than they did, and it held out longer than the Germans expected, and if it had been properly organized, it would probably have been able to end the war in 1941 or '42.  It was certainly powerful enough.

The defeats in Algeria and Dien Bien Phu were also results of failures of organization and command, rather than any deficiency in the French soldier or equipment, which in the latter case was superior than that of their opponents.  In the former case, all the fighting men/women were roughly equal in prowess.  French weapons, mainly the Exocet, helped the Argentines and the Iraqis resist the British and Americans in their wars for far longer than they would have ordinarily.

Beyond that, it says something about a country that does not need to use its military to solve its problems.

Very true...by all means I wish the US wasn't so gun crazy and war happy.  But France has too many issues domestically to try and fight any useless wars a la the US.  But really, outside of Napoleon's exploits, when have the French won a war in history without large amounts of support from other countries?

The Wars of Louis XIV; the Franco-Dutch War, the War of the League of Augsburg, and the War of the Spanish Succession, they were the main combatant on one side and won.  Franco-Dutch War, England was on the French side but did not participate in the war very much.  The League of Augsburg, France was entirely alone, except for the Scottish and Irish Jacobites, who were next to worthless, and yet won.  In the Spanish Succession, a Frenchman succeeded to the Spanish throne, and got all of the Spanish Americas, so, yeah, victory.

They won the Thirty Years' War, under Cardinal Richelieu, before that time, as well, in which THEY were the help to the losing side.  They also won the War of American Independence.  This counts because, unlike commonly believed in the United States, the American Independence War was, to the French and British, only a continuation of the continued Franco-British Wars.

Napoleon did some @$$-kicking, but we already all know of him.  The French also held their own during World War I before the UK actually started getting to France, though did not win.  They did have several flops in the 19th century, such as the War of the French Intervention, in which the MEXICANS kicked them back to France (with some US help at the end, though it was embroiled in the US Civil War for most of the war).  Also, the Franco-Prussian War.

However, on the whole, France has proven a strong, powerful nation, which deserves respect for at least their historical power.  It was two wars, WW2 and Vietnam, that got them the reputation, mostly undeserved, that they have now.  And those were both, not because of their armies being inferior, surrendering easily, or other such stereotypes, but because of major strategic errors (um...why point the cannons in a direction the Germans didn't come the FIRST time!!!  They came through Belgium the first time, gorrammit!  Put cannon on the Belgian border.  DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

You are the Russian Army.  You used to be a badass, but over time you've run low on cash to keep running, and now you're totally broke.  You can still fight, but in order to stay combat ready, you have to sell yourself as cheap tricks to every podunk nation that wants to pick a fight with somebody.
