The German Army, known as the Heer, is the land-based branch of Germany’s military (Bundeswehr). It is responsible for ground operations, including defense, troop deployment, and peacekeeping missions. The Heer trains soldiers, maintains equipment, and plans military strategies to protect Germany’s interests both domestically and internationally. Historically established in the 20th century, it has evolved with modern technology, focusing on adaptability and professionalism. The Heer works alongside other branches like the Air Force and Navy, contributing to Germany’s overall defense capabilities within NATO and global contexts.
