It might become the next toy craze among German children: teddy-bears in military uniforms. That's at least what the people at LHD, a subsidiary of a Bundeswehr sub-contractor, must be hoping.
They've taken your run-of-the-mill toy bears and dressed them in combat gear. Take Flecki (Spotty) who wears camouflage, or Nelson who serves in the navy. Tom looks the part of an air force officer; and while the real German soldiers didn't go to Iraq, Lawrence is ready for a desert mission in the tan camouflage look.
