the one in the pic and the oficial danish army sidearm is the SIG P210
though in some of the pics it looks like they are using the beretta

the SIG P210 is getting replaced by H&K UPS from what i have heard

X2. Saw quite a few rather overloaded vehicles in Leb., but nothing even close to this p-). The load looks like being plastic water cisterns of the type you find on the roof of many houses in the Arab world and Israel.

In Iraq, white vehicles with orange front and back parts are taxicabs or vehicles for hire. They're painted that way to let you know they're taxis, like how in the US the majority of taxis are painted yellow.

...And now you know the answer to one of the secret questions we use to test posers with.

But I still won't tell you the color of the boathouse in Hereford. p-)

The image of the soldier w/ the MP5. the stance seems "exagerated" to me, or is this the correct alignment to fit the weapon ?

he had a little to close encounter with a GD.

they are confisticated weapons, but in this case they are using them on the firing range.

It's pitty that the Eagle, with all that fine armour, has it's top gunner fully exposed....:-|
i completly agree!!
though they are supposedly fitting them with special light wight armord turrets now.
havent seen any deployed yet though.. :|

what does the arabic (?) writing say on the sides of the vehicle?

It says "I am not an american".... :-D
okay, what it really says, is: "Danish Forces"

nevertheless, the locals rarely shot at us (i was there on team 5)

hehe funny I thought it was because of all the sanctions (don't know if I spell that right) so that people mixed parts of the old cars onto the new or something like that. :cantbeli:

what does the arabic (?) writing say on the sides of the vehicle?It says, "We're the ones who made cartoons of the Prophet".

...just kidding. As stated earlier, it says "Danish forces". In Arabic: "Al-quwat ad-denmarkiya".
