Talk:EKO Cobra

message: The article for Einsatzkommando currently refers only to Nazi-era extermination units; the continued use of this term suggests that the term Einsatzcommando has had many other non-Nazi uses, or it would have been quietly edited out of the German language, like other Nazi-era terms. I have a feeling that the Einsatzkommando article is referring to the Einsatzgruppen, rather than this general term. Can someone give a good idiomatic translation of "Einsatzkommando" -- presumably it's something like the English "task force"? -- Karada 12:13, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states: "EKO Cobra was involved in trying to end the OPEC siege led by Carlos (the Jackal) in 1975 [...]". But the article also says that Cobra was founded in 1978. Contradiction? --Vheissu (talk) 07:33, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You are right. Wether the EKO Cobra nor the GEK were involved in the OPEC-case. If the police of Vienna would have had such a force in 1975 the whole story would probably have ended quite different... --Plani (talk) 23:18, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

message: This article almost reads like an advert.. but in terms of mere content it seems accurate.
Whoever wrote that, let me tell you that literal translations almost always sound "strange" - in this case please don't literally translate "Wiener Einsatzgruppe Alarmabteilung" into English. English speakers get the idea, if you refer to them as an equivalent to e.g. American SWAT teams.

thread_title:  Little bit sloppy language 

message: The history section of this article needs to be updated to include the recent incident where EKO personnel were involved in a fatal confrontation with an armed man in Austria. I believe the unit themselves sustained at least one fatality. (10/10/2013)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.37.186.94 (talk) 22:08, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
