Soldier's racist instruction on German TV
April 16, 2007
BERLIN: German television yesterday aired a video clip of a German army instructor telling a soldier to imagine he was facing African-Americans in the Bronx while firing his machinegun.
The clip shows an instructor and a soldier in camouflage uniforms in a forest.
The instructor tells the soldier: "You are in the Bronx. A black van is stopping in front of you.
"Three African-Americans are getting out and they are insulting your mother in the worst ways ... Act."
The soldier fires his machinegun and yells an obscenity several times in English.
The instructor then tells the soldier to curse even louder.
The video, coming after scandals over photos of soldiers posing with skulls in Afghanistan and the abuse of recruits by instructors, seemed likely to raisemore questions about training practices in Germany's conscript army.
The Defence Ministry confirmed that the video was shot last July at the Feldwebel-Schmid barracks in the northern German town of Rendsburg and that the army had been aware of its existence since January.
"We are currently investigating the incident," said army and Defence Ministry spokesman Florian Naggies. He declined toreveal the identity of the participants.
The existence of the video was first reported on the home page of German news magazine Stern on Saturday and excerpts of the video were aired on news channel n-tv yesterday.
According to Stern, the 90-second video had been posted on the internet forum myvideo.de by soldiers who used the web forum to exchange private videos.
One of the soldiers involved had later alerted his superiors tothe video, the magazine reported.
One army officer strongly condemned the incident yesterday.
"We can no longer talk about an isolated case," said Lieutenant Juergen Rose of the Darmstaedter Signal, a group of army officers and sergeants who scrutinise the military.
"Things like this don't happen in the army on an everyday basis, but unfortunately in recent years there have been a number of comparable incidents."
Eighteen army instructors are on trial for allegedly abusing and humiliating 163 recruits in 2004.
Last year, newspapers published photos of German soldiers in Afghanistan posing with skulls, including one who exposed himself while holding a skull.
The Afghanistan pictures raised questions about how well the army was preparing soldiers for Germany's increasing number of overseas peacekeeping deployments.
