Europe, reactive not proactive.
- Steve16384 8mo agoOut of curiosity, what do you think they should have done?
- amelius 8mo agoI suppose the answer would be "build a better army, 20 years ago".
- scotty79 8mo agoAmericans were very efficiently suppressing such ideas. They were never interested in Europe having effective army. They only wanted to sell equipment and partially support their bases with European money. When the school bully is your "friend" you don't exactly have the freedom to do what's best for you.
- taneliv 8mo agoAs a European (but not Danish), I feel like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_Denmark https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_Denmark is quite proactive.
- skirge 8mo agohow many months in Arctic training?
- taneliv 8mo agoNice try, Mr. Spy! If I were to guess, probably all of the months (four to twelve) in units that are in the Arctic, and (very close to) zero months in other units. I also don't know how well military experience from other Danish regions translates to the Arctic. Probably quite well, I'd imagine.
