This article contains a translation of Luftbewegliche Brigade 1 from de.wikipedia. (462300779 et seq.)

What's the deal about english names for foreign military units. I think this is not useful, because it leads to misunderstandings. If you really want to use an English name, please rename this article to something with a suffix "airborne". --Scriberius (talk) 13:36, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We

WP:USEENGLISH names for clarity because this is the English Wikipedia. The title is correct because luftbeweglich means "airmobile". An "airborne brigade" in German would be a Luftlandebrigade - see Militärisches Studienglossar, Teil I, A-K published by Germany's Federal Language Office and issued to the Bundeswehr. --Bermicourt (talk) 17:33, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply
