During my final active duty tour, with the US Army in Germany, we deployed
Korean-War-vintage, manual telephone switchboards for less critical
telephone circuits. That was OK as long as we kept them on US bases and
connected them only to US lines, but as soon as we connected them to
Bundespost leased circuit, we had to pay a daily fine of (I believe) some
hundreds of Marks, because the equipment was not VDE-approved.
