[edit] Unrelated content

The sale of BTR-60s to Turkey at the beginning of the 1990s (with the stipulation that they not be used in internal conflicts, especially against the Kurds), made headlines. It was later proven by German journalists that these former NVA vehicles were, and still are, being used in regions with Kurdish populations, in violation of this stipulation.

Despite being a subjective and indefinite comment about Turkey, the last paragraph of the section "Utilization of former NVA material after 1991" seems totally unrelated to the article. I suggest removing the whole paragraph. Cagdase 14:53, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Concentration camp

i believe it would be in the best interests to state that the NVA wasnt using the concentration camp to Murder jews...i find it somewhat misleading...celebrating 25 years of NVA at a concentration camp! its a picture of two NVA soldiers holding up an east german flag and under it states -Another GDR stamp celebrating 25 years of the NVA, at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp- im changing it, unless someone can provide a reason not to.
