El aryANO

oh, this is going to be fun

«Séame permitido consignar en este lugar, el homenaje de especial gratitud al ilustre soberano del Imperio Alemán, S.M. el emperador Guillermo II, por la distinción dispensada a nuestro país, permitiendo que oficiales alemanes viniesen a ingresar en el Ejército de Chile en calidad de instructores y que oficiales chilenos fuesen a instruirse en el Ejército Alemán, lo que no puede dejar de establecer una corriente provechosa y simpática de estrecha unión entre ambos Ejércitos»... «Los oficiales alemanes han sido ocupados como instructores en los establecimientos de educación en las zonas militares, en los Cuerpos del ejército permanente y prestarán servicios valiosos en los cuadros de instrucción para la Guardia Nacional»

igual los milicos viven del estado, son la forma perfeccionada del comunismo que tanto odian.

Germans have the objectively most fashionable militaries.

Nope
Nice try though

Because germany is the best example from how to do the things right and we feel admiration from them, also this

The Wilhem helmet is not functional in a modern battlefield, you'd be better off without it and I doubt these are actually used by personel in service...
That's just a honor guard, whoever designed that uniform likes to play Nazi which shouldn't be a surprise to anyone even remotely familiar with the history of Chile's military...

German have style yo

>That's just a honor guard, whoever designed that uniform likes to play Nazi which shouldn't be a surprise to anyone even remotely familiar with the history of Chile's military...
The design is older than the Nazi's, the German military was brought over to train many New World countries during the 19th century and their attire, including the helmets, was adopted by the countries they trained

The uniform is based on the Nazi, nevermind the helmet, have you never seen one?

>Chile hired a French military training mission in 1858,[8]:129 and the Chilean legation in Berlin was instructed to find a training mission during the War of the Pacific in 1881. But large-scale emulation of the Prussian Army began in 1886 with the appointment of Captain Emil Körner, a graduate of the renowned Kriegsakademie in Berlin. Also appointed were 36 Prussian officers to train officer cadets in the Chilean Military Academy. The training occurred in three phases; the first took place from 1885 to 1891 during the presidency of Domingo Santa María, the second was the post-civil-war phase, and the third was the 1906 reorganization.[8]:128-

>The German Feldgrau uniforms are the main full dress of the Chilean Army while cadets of the Army Military School "Bernardo O'Higgins Riquelme" wear the Prussian blue uniform with a Pickelhaube helmet. Some Chilean Army units (Chacabuco and Rancagua regiments for example) wear the Army uniform during the War of the Pacific during parades, with kepis as headdress. The Buin regiment (2nd Army division in the Santiago Metropolitan region) has recently reintroduced the historic Army infantry regimental uniforms of the Chilean War of Independence, having been formed in December 1810 as the 1st Infantry Regiment "Chilean Grenadiers", the Chilean Army's first constituent military unit. The 1st Cavalry Regiment and the 1st Artillery Regiment's Krupp Artillery Battery, both ceremonial units of the ground forces proper, have since 2012 wearing the early 20th century Prussian-style full dress uniforms of the Army's cavalry and artillery branches.

It's from early Prussian influence on their military in the 19th century, not Nazis

>Is Chile cucked?
>[X] cucked by spain
>[X] cucked by germany

Because they are Prussia.

Because they are honorary Aryans.

looks good, something wrong with that?

>cucked by spain

>spaniards literally come here in misery looking for jobs

pretty sure modern military helmets are based on that design (which is older than the nazis btw)

Nothing, it's just funny... Chilean army has "prussian" influence, brazilian army has american influence, argentinian army french influence, etc...
