[B.T.]

In Germany the English language is taughed to all pupils. Off course, most Germans do not need so much of this later in their life, but in an environment and a situation like the Twilight War many Germans would train their English skills.

(By the way: I, from a personal point of view, think it's way easier to talk to someone in English, than to write in English!)

I don't think some kind of situation report or tactical briefing between English/American and German forces would work very good (In some cases it would, depending on the individual skills of the people being involved!), but begging for ammo or calling in indirect fire should work in most cases.

In my Twilight World it is not uncommon to have people from different countries serving together in a "new" unit - Germans in the 5th Inf. Div., Poles or Russians in a NATO unit or Americans as part of a Bundeswehr unit.

The German forces in the Twilight universe have a serious problem with their ammo: In each unit there would be at least 3 different kinds of ammo - 7,62 NATO; 9mm Para and 4,7 caseless or 5,56 NATO. If a unit is armed with a mix of G11 and G41/M16, these units would need 4 different kinds of ammo. If the units had AKs with them, the situation would be even worse!
