Fernspäher is an old term for elite reconnaissance troopers, relating to the word fern (long range, distance) and the word Späher (scout). Thus, the Fernspäher are specially trained and equipped reconnaissance soldiers who cover great distances to gather intelligence and fulfill military tasks of high importance.
auf stube: in the barracks ---> in german the room you are assignet to in your barracks with your bed etc is called stube. stube is a slightly ouf of date word for the living room in an appartment or house. the youtube channel "auf stube" is a special project by the bundeswehr to appeal to younger audiences for increased recruitment. this is very controversial in germany, as the bundeswehr is present at job orientation for school kids too, where they not really belong. especcially because they produce recruitment videos in a way, that portrays the work as soldier as a fun and cool adventure and tend to omit the reality in almost all of their material etc. fernspäher ( long range recon) are the special reconnaisance units (part of the sof) of the bundeswehr. (he is wearing a mask during interview, as certain units like the KSK and Fernspäher are subjected to identity protection. these units are relatively small and if their identity is leaked their families may be threated by terrorists or enemy infiltrators) the night vision goggles you saw are the lucie night vision goggles. standart in the german armed forces. but there is a program called "soldat der zukunft" soldier of the future, wich includes ai supportet night vision, battlefield management systems on person etc. and some parts of the programm are already in troop trials. the subtitles are horrible.... she introduces herself as Jule, an abreviation of Julia and its translated into i am a jew...... fernspäher is translated as television etc
These videos "Auf Stube" are specially made for teenagers and are for recruitment purposes. Therefore, the presentation is very relaxed and suitable for young people. "Auf Stube" can be translated as "in the barracks room".
@@PeriQue1337 well its not like the videos go all germany is great there are no faults join join because otherwise we would have a big military without conscripts
Ben yes i am. It‘s a pity that lot of the answers of the recon soldier were somewhat butchered.. in general: that was a recruiting video of the army. The female soldier is from the pr department and is doing these interviews/reports to generate a positive picture of the armed forces. I really like this kind of pr, it is relativly near the reality.
7:36 "Then there is magic that is specially trained" ah yes of course, I can remember my times back in the old magic unit. Lot of spell learning beside the combat training. My instructor was Oberfeldwebel Seltsam, which later played Dr. Strange in the movies.
Also "Moin" ist a greeting .... Something like morning... And "Auf Stube" is not a guy but the official UA-cam Channel of the German Bundeswehr ... And it means Auf = On and Stube = soldiers quarter .
@@Daanhaall moin is a generic "hello" in Northern German, not specific for any time of the day... But yeah, the origin of this word probably has something to do with "morgen = morning" ;)
The standard reconnaissance unit of the Bundeswehr is called "Heeresaufklärer" (which i was a member of). The Fernspäher, the guys in this video, are a special force unit that either work directly with other special force untis or on their own, behind enemy lines. The english name for "Fernspähaufklärung" is either "Long Range Surveillance (LRS)" or "Long Range Reconnaissance (LRR)" and for the "Fernspähtruppe" it is "Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol (LRRP)".
By the way it constantly translates "Fernspäher" as TV or television because the german word for it "Fernseher" sounds very similar, especially mixed with a little sound impurity like the dude wearing a face mask etc. (And Also She is a Navy Gunnery Sergeant (OR-7/OR-8) and has very much "been around" the armed forces herself even before her time in the Press Staff of the army I reckon. She's not just a reporter.)
@@YoItsJoozu I think that would be a bit to close to Waffen-SS Camo. There were Discussions about Flecktarn when it was first introduced. Germany is very concerned to not make any similarities with the Nazis. Especially not the Waffen-SS. Meanwhile Russian "Partizan"-Camo is outright Copy of the Waffen-SS "Eichentarn".
@Proud Indian Sure. And if you would have red my Comment I didn't denied that. As a Reenactor of WW2 German Wehrmacht the only Complain I have is that the Uniform is stylish but not made for actual Combat. The Sleeves are too short for Example.
Fernspäher are elite reconnaissance troops, developped from the Fallschirmjaegerunits. Their job is to jump alone behind enemy lines and get reconnaissance. My drill Feldwebel was one of them. One of the toughest guys i ever met.
Back in my Army (served with Jäger Battalion (Infantry)) time we now and then worked with the "Fernspäherlehrkompanie in Pfullendorf". They were basically our op force. Our mission was to sweep the area for any signs of enemy forces (displayed by Fernspäh trainees). After three days we only found one hidden in a 2m deep hole. The rest we never managed to spot. That was, in the late 90s (before the commissioning of the KSK), and we had a lot of good training with them. And the barracks in Pfullendorf hosted a lot of NATO special forces for training purpose. Learned a lot there.
Those guys have a pretty high security clearance and are not allowed to talk about anything, although they are in foreign countries all the time. In an interview situation especially, you don't want to risk to say one word too much, so you better say three words less.
You try to disengage ASAP. Then you try to avoid enemy tracking. You don't have even close to ire power to fight anything more than a couple of quick ambushes. If you need to fight more, then you have to get access to enemy bullets and weapons to replenish your supplies.
Those are Fernspaeher what would be remote recon. When they formed the commando forces, they Fernspaeher treained them. They are pretty much the most elite forces of the Bundeswehr and had been recognized for what they do by other countries. They would typically infiltrate deep into enemy territory and observe high value targets (and very rarely eliminate them). But they would have to glide with a parachute and then march for days to find a hiding point. They have to carry a lot of equipment (as they need a lot of recon devices plus what they need to live in a hideout for weeks and they have to transport it all by foot).
This unit is from the Place where I grew up 👍 at that time the military compound was called „NATO international school for long range reconnaissance“ ... I remember there was in summer an annual competition with special forces from all over the world ... open for public.... called para cross or s th like that. As a teen guy it was always a greate experience to be there and watch the guys...
The "weird looking nightvision" is the LUCIE it's the standart german nightvision. Hope it gets replaced soon to be honest. since you only have one spot where the light goes in you don't have a 3D view and in my opinion it's overall not very up to date by now.
These guys are most comparable to what used to be the USMCs Force Recon Companies. They're pretty much the same as the KSK - but less direct action and more (very) long range recon
Fun thing on the nightvision, they look maybe different but these are really old. Monocular Systems that got replaced by the XACT-nv33 and for special forces for example the L3Harris GPNVG (the quad eyes) for special forces
Members of german SF and SOF usually share a mindset of being a "quiet professional", especially if they are in front of a camera, which doesn't mean they are free of humor 😆
@@elwray3506 Those guys have a pretty high security clearance and are not allowed to talk about anything relevant. In an interview situation especially, you then not want to say one word too much, so you better say three words less.
I live not far away from Pfullendorf, in the past they trained regularly near my village. Because there was an airfield. Their aptitude test is brutal. In the first 30h they get nothing to eat. One part is/was. They have to escape a compound (Prison) with nothing, have to follow strict rules, like no help from civilians, don´t enter villages. They get hunted until they get found. With dogs, by helicopter and more.
"Fernspäher" are special reconnaissance, similiar to US force recon, they do recon task far behind enemy lines, e.g. by halo jumping. "Aufklärer" are normal military reconnaissance, they do recon closely behind enemy lines, but don't para jump.

The night vision thing is called "Lucy", it is good but not like vehicle night vision. I found a little burning candle while on watch in the middle of a clouded night in a dense wood. And not brag about, but my natural exesight is super sensibel to light, I can see in "normal" darkness like other when the sun sets or rises.

In the German Bundeswehr, LRRP is called Fernspäher (long-range scouts). Historically, the German Fernspäher units were modelled after the Finnish long-range patrols and derived from the existing elite units of Gebirgsjäger (mountain troops) and Fallschirmjäger (airborne troops). Originally, there were three companies of Fernspäher in the Bundeswehr, one being assigned to each corps. Since the reformation of German Special Forces in 1996, the Fernspählehrkompanie 200 (FSLK200) is the single remaining Fernspäher unit. The Fernspähers are part of the Special Operations Division. FSLK200 is the only German special force-type unit which has also recruited women.[3] Details about operations of the FSLK200 are secret but it is known that Fernspäher carried out missions in Bosnia and Herzegovina, during the Kosovo War and later during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Wiki
There's a new video up, about the new german "System Panzergrenadier". Care to try to understand.. and react to it? A pretty modern take on mechanized infantry :)
The night vision gear they use is called LUCIE and is made by Thales. It is a pretty basic, non-stereoscopic night vision device, not very high tec at all unfortunately. In a cloudy night far away from other light sources, you already might need some additional IR illumination to see anything. I always liked the low profile of it though.
Fernspäher could be compared to Force Recon Marines of the US. They're part of the DSO (Division für spezielle Operationen / Division for special operations). The idea is to gather intel while not being detected. But they can do other specops stuff like sabotage and exfil too, if they have to. The squads are basically going by the same design as any commando team would, plus a little extra since their original role is strictly recon.
Try to vote on them which is the most intense and brutal trainings to every military training you've been reacting scale them from 1 as the hardest. Salute to ever military services 💪
I just subbed a few minutes ago after i watched your video reaction to the Philippine Scout Ranger! Thank you for the reaction to our elite force here in my country! USA and Philippines are brothers for life since ww2🇵🇭❤🇺🇸 I hope you can react about the The Great Raid too. Thanks!
I like your reaction videos about the German Army. Pretty cool to see, what soldiers of different countries think about us ;) Two points: - YT-auto-translate really sucks :D - She should know some things about the military as she is the German Navy equivalent of a CPO (difficult word for English speakers: "Hauptbootsmann" :D ) in the US Navy ;)
stube is an alb word for your room and is only used in the military, another version is the gute stube (good room) that's the living room. But again it is an old word, rarely used anymore.
The "Fernspäher" which you pronounced as good as you can an english speaker expect to do is indeed reconnaince. I think the best comparisation in the US forces I know of would be the Long Range Reconaicance Pratol Units during Vietnam. The job of "Fernspäher" is basiclly to infiltrate behind enemy lines. Watch for troop movements, supply lines and bases and so on. Basiclly gathering information what is going on far in front of the own troops.
the thing with the fortified positions translated "bomber piece" is wrong its a tree hideout and its in the top of the tree as opposed to just sitting there in the temporary hideout
Geez what a bad translation. I love that confused face when he tries to understand what the hell they are talking about😂. They talk about being a Fernspäher, or the „scout unit“ and the translation goes like... „television“. Can’t take it.🤣 But all in one really nice videos. Greets from Germany

The night vision gear they use is called LUCIE and is made by Thales. It is a pretty basic, non-stereoscopic night vision device, not very high tec at all unfortunately. In a cloudy night far away from other light sources, you already might need some additional IR illumination to see anything.
I always liked the low profile of it though.
Fernspäher could be compared to Force Recon Marines of the US. They're part of the DSO (Division für spezielle Operationen / Division for special operations). The idea is to gather intel while not being detected. But they can do other specops stuff like sabotage and exfil too, if they have to. The squads are basically going by the same design as any commando team would, plus a little extra since their original role is strictly recon.
Try to vote on them which is the most intense and brutal trainings to every military training you've been reacting scale them from 1 as the hardest. Salute to ever military services 💪
I just subbed a few minutes ago after i watched your video reaction to the Philippine Scout Ranger! Thank you for the reaction to our elite force here in my country! USA and Philippines are brothers for life since ww2🇵🇭❤🇺🇸 I hope you can react about the The Great Raid too. Thanks!
Binowa: Night Vision device. Originated by BuBu-BuBu. Developed 1999 - 2001. Home grown.
I like your reaction videos about the German Army. Pretty cool to see, what soldiers of different countries think about us ;)
Two points:
- YT-auto-translate really sucks :D
- She should know some things about the military as she is the German Navy equivalent of a CPO (difficult word for English speakers: "Hauptbootsmann" :D ) in the US Navy ;)
stube is an alb word for your room and is only used in the military, another version is the gute stube (good room) that's the living room. But again it is an old word, rarely used anymore.
She doesn't just have an understanding of the military. She herself is in it. Navy, (NATO OR-7) (Hauptfeldwebel (or here, Navy, Hauptbootsmann)).
The "Fernspäher" which you pronounced as good as you can an english speaker expect to do is indeed reconnaince. I think the best comparisation in the US forces I know of would be the Long Range Reconaicance Pratol Units during Vietnam. The job of "Fernspäher" is basiclly to infiltrate behind enemy lines. Watch for troop movements, supply lines and bases and so on. Basiclly gathering information what is going on far in front of the own troops.
From what I can tell, 'Auf Stube' is a format from the official YT channel of the German Army (Bundeswehr). She's probably with public relations.
Fernspäher essentially are the German equivalent to rangers since their main mission is to conduct lrp/ lrrp
Those are pretty old night visions goggles and I hated using them the new ones are pretty good
You covered Canada s RCMP but was hoping to see Canada s JTF2. 👍👍
fern Späher is like far watcher and i never heard it bevore.
the thing with the fortified positions translated "bomber piece" is wrong its a tree hideout and its in the top of the tree as opposed to just sitting there in the temporary hideout
You didnt do the GSG9 Yet
Yeah, we germans had fucking magic soldiers!
You should check out Kanuster’s Delta Force video next!
Geez what a bad translation. I love that confused face when he tries to understand what the hell they are talking about😂. They talk about being a Fernspäher, or the „scout unit“ and the translation goes like... „television“. Can’t take it.🤣 But all in one really nice videos. Greets from Germany
German im Titel
Deutsche: Dieses Video ist nun Teil der BRD
1:50 Calling the "LUCIE" Hightech, killed me as a German soldier. 🤣
That thing is like Stone age, monocular view, estimating distances becomes a nightmare with that trashcan on your face.😅🤮🤣
Yup i loved getting all these twigs and branches in my face because you had to always sharpen the image. Also stepping int oholes and all that.... yes....LUCIE was awesome... xD
I like your reactions! Second time I’ve seen one - now you’ve got me as your follower. Very informative, interesting comments and additional explanations. And: always honestly respectful. Good job. Greetings and all the best to you from... Germany 😉👊🏼
ow-f shtoo-ba.
means "at/in quarters"
Nice video!
2:22 Gotta love those automatic subtitles.
She says "I ch bin Jule" (I am/My Name is Jule) and the subs are "I am a jew".
I'm fluent in German so was able to just listen and realise that she was pretty cute. Some questions she asked she already knew she wouldn't get an answer to for security reasons and she didn't press. Quite a good docu, apart from the start, that was a bit iffy.
Well it's German humor what do you expect?
@@bobuscesar2534 That is NOT German humor. They tried to bring in a funny element and failed. That happens. But don't hold this up as a standard for German humor.
Fernspäter are best described as Reconnaissance Specialist
i was in the Artillery section. Pretty boring tbh^^ but hella loud and powerful stuff there. Those guys here have a lot of fun
That night vision gear system is called "Lucy"
no its LUCIE ( Light and UlttraCompact Identify Equipment or the original french type Lunette Compacte Intensificatrice Economique)
Those NODS are Lucies! Made by Thales.
You should watch the you could call it german seals. They called "KSK-M" or" Kampfschwimmer".
The Night Vision Goggles are from Luxemburg that’s probably the reason it’s not common in the us Military
300-400km in enemy terretory?
russia invades poland suddenly the bushes in russia speak german
Can you please make a video about the Brandenburger (Lehrregiment Brandenburg z. b. V. 800)?
They where the Black-Ops Unit of the German military intelligence in WW2 and did a ton of coat and dagger shit around the world. Their english Wikipedia site is pretty solid and you should find videos on youtube as well.
You should do something about the Panzergrenadiere and the tank system puma
I actually met the woman in the video while she was doing a documentary on a unit i was in and Bro did she hate her job haha 😅
Warum?
@@ThomasIsBored Das interessiert mich jetzt auch. In den Videos bringt sie es ja einigermaßen gut rüber. Oder meinst du den Job als Bootsmann allgemein?
@@ThomasIsBored sorry gar nicht mehr gesehen. Der übliche "Scheiss" den dir glaub ich viele Soldaten erzählen können -> eigentlich auf einen anderen Job beworben (bzw was anderes versprochen worden), eigentlich andere Qualifikationen als für diese Arbeit benötigt und deshalb nicht so glücklich... passiert andauernd in den "Karriere"-Zentren
The nightvision is called LUCIE.
You should definitly check out the short movie from the Bundeswehr about the KSM (German Navy Special Forces) You probably won't need a translate because it's a cinematic
Im from germany and "auf stube" means on your room stube is the Word for your room at your Base
That is correct, but it is also a military slang for "relax time", "time for a casual talk".
2:33 "...muss ich nur noch Andi finden, ich weiß nur soviel, dass..." (I just have to find Andi (short of Andreas), I only know that...) becomes "...I just have to find the I know so much..." Nice! The translation isn't really acurate, since it refers only on the spoken "slang", misunderstanding many words...
Can you react to more Norwegian stuff. Jegertroppen, KJK, TMBN etc.
they are night visions called Lucy ...
you skipped the cool part about how they hide themselfs or let enemy troops literally drive over them, so they get behind enemy lines...best part for sure
German is such an attractive language.
Thanks😎😅😅
I think the German remote scouts are similar to the USMC Force Recon
this is a training at the time as your where looking. I speak and live in Germany
Fernspäher = Scouts is the best translation. 👌🏻👋🏻
No scouts are the "Fallschirmjägerspezialzug". The correct translation ist long-range reconaissance patrol
@@a.h.3728 OK thx
