German soldiers in Jordan demonstrate perfect bunker usage — even Liepāja theater audiences can't disappear that fast

A real drama unfolded at the Al Azrak military base in Jordan when Iranian missiles or their debris hit German soldiers' barracks. Fortunately, all military personnel were already in shelters during the attack, proving German punctuality even in extreme situations.

"We saw them running to the shelters and thought — now that's discipline!" said local resident Ahmed. "We only see such organization when a show starts at Liepāja theater and even Riga residents come to watch — then everyone also knows exactly where to go."

Spiegel magazine is still determining whether the barracks were hit directly by missiles or by debris from air defense systems. Such uncertainty is typical in situations when things fall from above — similar to how in Riga no one really knows whether the rain is real or just dust from demolition work.

Germany's military contingent at this base was reduced after the conflict began, demonstrating a practical approach. While other countries are still thinking whether to increase or decrease forces, Germans long ago understood it's better to be safe than heroes. Such wise tactics are only seen in Latvia in Liepāja, where on windy days even the bravest pedestrians choose to walk on Graudu Street rather than along the seashore.
