    Rest easy soldiers.



    I think that Kenneth Juul Strøm would be very surpriced when he hear that he is dead. Because he is very much alive and he was a major at that time. The guy you are talking about are Anders Bjørn Storgaard.

    Afghans, Americans, Brits, Danes and Estonians have been practicing recovery of each others vehicles. The Danish Wisent ARV was then only RV that could recover a vehicle without putting soldiers on the ground.

    Nice pics, thanks! I see those mine ploughs have been put to good use

    I wonder if that's a crater from a small mine or some kind of weapon on the second picture?

    Yeah, they removed 4 IED's without them exploding.

    The craters(i see 2) could be from mortars, the article stated that taliban used them against that unit.

    Huh - did I miss something? I know our Chief of Defence visited Helmand, but that was back in November shortly after he took office, IIRC. He's an evil mofo, BTW, and if he could, I'm pretty sure he'd move his office to Helmand. Only problem is that nobody feels comfortable when he's around

    Well I think that's job done then. They should probably pack up, go back to Denmark and disband, now that they've made it into your top 3!
