Encyclopedia : F : FE : FEL : Feldjäger


The Feldjäger are the military police of the German Bundeswehr, Germany's armed forces. The term Feldjäger ("field rifleman" or "field hunter") has a long tradition and dates back to the mid-17th century. Their motto is Suum Cuique (Latin: "To each his own", derived from Cicero, De Finibus, Bonorum et Malorum, liber V, 67: "(...) ut fortitudo in laboribus periculisque cernatur, (...), iustitia in suo cuique tribuendo.").
