Looks like the Germans hit a home run. But sounds like all the teams did well and cooperation is what it's all about.

The US team didn't even PLACE!!! Germany, Denmark, then Poland......awesome. Congrats to our European brothers!!!. Nice job!
I have to say, looking at those pictures, brought back some not-so-nice memories.......memories of stories, movies, and other pics of Germans "winning" in Europe.
Damn I miss fresh schnitzel and spätzele!!!! There's a reason why I spent over 1/3 of my career there!!!

LTC David B. The Danes run the Leopard tank as well. They have a range not too far from me and I see them on HETTs all the time.

SGM Mikel Dawson - yeah, them and about 10 other European nations! So many in fact that it's affectionately known as the EuroTank.
It's most recent upgrades do bring it up to, and in several areas, better than the Abrams. Tank vs tank is something everyone is very interested in......but personally I understand that tactics, especially at the platoon and company level, play an even greater part in winning battles/wars/campaigns. That said, I hope we never have to fight against it! I have no doubt we would eventually win but we'd lose a hell of a lot Soldiers and tanks doing so.

All teams should get a round of applause for all the training they do, and all the hard work involved.
