Germany contributed 18 billion DM cash for GWII plus military gear and
equipment. Thats pretty much above "Zilch".

Examples for equipment contribution:

8000h Transall transport flights, 200 train loads for allied troops,
60 Fuchs tanks to the US army, 11 to the UK troops. Patriot batteries
delivered to Israel and Turkey, plus Leopard I tanks to Turkey. 100000
gas masks and suits agains chemical warfare to Israel.

AFAIK one of the Patriot battery stayed in Israel until today.

Two batteries have been delivered there in January this year.

(2 billion in fall 1990, the rest during the build-up in early 1991).

And a example for active military contribution - the Bundesmarine
sweeped the Persian Gulf from mines just after the war and Special
Ships cleaned it from leaking oil..

So.. "Nada" contribution? I wish we had this money today..
