Not just the Bundeswehr, they also missed out the entire British Territorial Army as well. I appreciate there is much, much more information available today than there was then but the British Army orbat they did publish has quite a few inaccuracies in it.

That's the part about GDW that I was always disappointed in. I've always felt that the RPG side of the house did not benefit as much as the wargaming side did insofar as the background research.

Which just means that crusing the links and seeing what my fellow gamers come up with is so intresting!

Well it is a game that was written by US citizens and aimed at a mainly US market. Other countries probably weren't all that much of a priority during development.
It's a bit annoying now, 25 or so years later, but back then that was more than enough material to run a damn fine game.
