According to Stars & Stripes, an unnamed US soldier working at a casino near Wuerzburg, Germany, took on an armed thief, also unnamed, when the thief tried to rob that casino;
Neither the veteran nor the robber were identified, in keeping with German privacy laws.
The former soldier told the court that the situation reminded him of his experiences serving in Iraq.
When the robber turned away for a moment, the ex-servicemember slammed him to the ground, striking him so hard that he broke one of the robber’s cheekbones, the Main Post said.
On the night of the robbery, the veteran was filling in for his wife, who was also employed at the casino, the newspaper said. He testified that his wife had quit her job because she feared another robbery.
So Herr Thief is safely behind bars thanks to the former soldier and his testimony in court. Germany is just a little bit safer today.

Bad guy has gun. Good guy does not. Good guy kicks bad guy’s ass and bad guy later goes to prison. Outstanding.
Ausgezeichnet!
….gesundheit…….
SOMEBODY treat that Warrior and his Mrs. to a choice night out on the town!
Sehr gut, Herr U.S. Soldier. Wirklich sehr gut. Vieln Danke!
You do and you’ll clean it up.
Very well done. Not many people willing to bring only their fists to a gun fight.
Trained fists vs untrained & inattentive gunner – worked in this case at least.

They had casinos in Iraq?
Sure, right next to the strip clubs and open bars. He must have spent a lot of time on the Poles side of the base.
Sounds like the robber got seriously upgefucht.
Good job there Soldier. We’re all proud of you son.
so was this near Ausfahrt Germany? I mean every town is named that. you see the signs all along the Autobahn.
No, it’s only one town; it’s just that you can there from virtually anywhere in Germany.
Don’t think I’d be too quick to act for someone else’s money; no question if death or grievous injury is threatened. Glad it worked out for the unnamed soldier, and his wife was right.
Hate when that happens.
*grin*
Fuck with the duck, get stuck with the bill…
(Thank you Spec Rector, wherever you may be)…
…..broke the robber’s cheekbone….
Ouch! Well done, troop, well done! Give the robber a permanent reminder how crime does not pay.
“cheekbones”, plural
