Who said Germans do not have a sense of humour, this was a joke told to me by Dieter a dear freind who lived in the same apartment block as us in Altona in Hamburg.
Stefan a Russian soldier, in training, was a danger to himself and to his fellow soldiers in arms. during shooting practice one day his aim was so diverse that his officer decided to confiscate his rifle and substitue it for a lump of wood. When Stefan got upset his officer told him to shout bang, bang, everytime he pointed at a German soldier. Stefan being a tad slow at understanding logic and common sense, wa satisfied.
Some months later he was in action on the russian front, Everytime he pointed his lump of wood and shouted bang, bang by coincidence anothers bullet killed his intended target, elated Stefan grew braver with every bang. The officer ordered his men to fix baypnets and prepare to charge the enemy, for Stefan this was a set back, obviously having no bayonet, quizzing his officer, the officer replied, every time you make a thrust with your lump of wood shout stab, stab. Stefan smiled, he had a lot of success with the bang bang, why should the stab stab, be any different.
Bullets werre flying all around when the order was given to charge, Stefan was up the front, bang banging away, stab stab, enemy soldiers falling all around him tripping in the mud or being hit by stray bullets. Suddendly Stefan saw a collosus of a German soldier, momentarily Stefan was flumoxed, then ran headlong for the German shouting bang, bang, bang, stab stab stab
the German jugernaut came on regardless not even faltering in his tracks, Stab stab went Stefan again, Suddenly poor Stefan was crushed to the ground and squished to death, As the German steamed through the Russian lines he was heard saying
boom boom panzer.
