The German Army released a video to commemorate the Good Friday engagement, including some combat footage (although most of it doesn't show the incident in question, for some reason.)

The paratrooper interviewed later on in the video is Mario Kunert.

Cross of Honour for Conspicuous Gallantry, for deeds of exceptional bravery beyond the call of duty

Sergeant First Class Mario Kunert, Parachute Infantry Battalion 373

On April 2, 2010 in Kunduz province's Taleban-controlled Char Dara district, a platoon of 34 German paratroopers tasked with clearing a suspected improvised explosive device on a road near Isa Khel was ambushed by at least 40 insurgents and Chechen militants affiliated with the "Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan".
The platoon's vanguard was on the brink of being overrun, its leader wounded and incapacitated. Another group of insurgents some 40 strong attacked a nearby outpost, preventing reinforcements from relieving the German platoon in Isa Khel. Their attacks triggered a complex multi-dimensional battle which lasted for over nine hours. The nature of the engagement, oftentimes fought at very close a distance, rendered close air support and artillery support impossible.

Throughout the engagement, Sergeant First Class Kunert showed outstanding leadership and tremendous courage. After his platoon's vanguard had been surrounded early into the engagement and its leader incapacitated, Kunert spearheaded the relief effort. Together with four men, he mounted a fierce counter-attack and threw back the enemy closing in on the vanguard's position. His courage in battle and his rousing and vigorous leadership style allowed the greatly outnumbered vanguard to regroup, and rendered the evacuation of its wounded leader possible. Under Kunert's leadership, the platoon defended a militarily untenable position for a forbidding amount of time.

These are some really tall and massive superstructures and radar masts compared to the width of the hull. Looks like we've got a "Skyscraper" class again.

Pretty interesting subject: the German armed forces have been testing how shrubs can provide protection from blast waves and shrapnel in the event of a terrorist bombings. Apparently, thuja trees and yew trees yield promising results.

For those interested, English subtitles are usually made available a few days after the initial release of the video.

Looks like a smart solution. The knights who say "ni!" like this.

Gonna miss the Huey. Still, that's one sexy looking machine. And the delivery occured ahead of schedule, would you look at that.
