Most Disciplined Modern Armed Force

Like IDF ... good soldiers ... but no restraint. They have had numerous disciplinary crises lately. Unless all that torture stuff was actually policy ... take your pick, I guess.

No, not really. They don't have to be the only army with issues to be out of the running for most disciplined. Even the Canadian forces have had issues with discipline lately:

Does that put them out of the top spot? Yes ... it does.

Germany and France's militaries are good contendors, actually. Can you even find any major disciplinary scandals recently for either of these forces? Cameras have little to do with it, that's just a rather weak excuse. Cameras don't cause discipline issues in a military, they just make them politically costly. Information on disciplinary problems in any modern military is readily available, if you care to look, except perhaps in the case of countries like North Korea (and even then, you can find some information).

German military is notably impressive - especially since they have succesfully integrated elements of the former East German military, which had been operating under an entirely different set of political beliefs and had been trained to fight the soldiers they now bear arms with and the commanders they serve. Not to mention that they endured massive cuts during initial integration, and the breakup of their units. Few militaries would be able to achieve such a smooth transition in integrating such a polar opposite, without a great deal of disciplinary problems along the way.

I would vote for the Germans.
I have seen most of armies over decades specially in last 4-5 years. The word Discipline, when we mention it, army automaticly comes to our mind meaning each in every army has got discipline some less some more.

I have seen US and British army act very disciplined while they are at top but once they are counter attacked or shown some resistance then I bet you they are the worst as long as discipline is considered. Where as the Germans deals with the situation very well.

I wish there was a choice of Canada too, their army is also not bad along Italians.

My vote goes to the Swiss guard (army of Vatican). Not only must their soldiers follow strict rules while on duty, but they have rules of conduct for off duty time. They are all hand picked through psycological and physical tests, so there is practically no "rotten apples" among them.

Sure, I know you're gonna say "How hard is it to keep a company of men disciplined" but hey, the poll question didn't say BIG modern armed force, now did it?

Wow, first of all glad to hear that you got to know what you didn't at the first place, afterward Dear I would really suggest you that we Afghans have it in our nature that we don't really like to be ordered by foreigners, whether it's in benefit of us or in lose of.
So US is the same as the Russians were for Afghans (if no other, at least for me), and Russians were too invited in the first place latter on we got that we have been invaded so we really don't want to make the same mistake again.

Dear dirtnap,
First of all thanks alot for understanding my feelings and for sure I do respect not only yours but everyone's point as it gives one more and further information, whether it's correct or not could be decided by discussing about it in a calm environment...

Afterward, I never supported those terrorist at all, never ever. But for sure by saying that it doesn't mean that I am not supporting someone who is demanding an end to the invasion, and there is a big difference between terrorists and freedom fighters.

I guess if there is no difference then first of all American shall be called a terrorist state as the supported the (freedom fighters) terrorist back in 1980s against the Russians.

The taleban movement at first was a pure religious group who wanted an independent, prosperous, and Islamic state nothing else, it was the outsiders who made it look terrouble once they merged in them.

We shouldn't forget that the extream super power of today (America) is not able to stop the cultivation of Opium, where as by one single order of Amer-ul-Momenen Mullah Mohammad Omer, the cultivation of opium was stopped all over the country in a single day.
