Norgy's excuses ring hollow. Having Guards soldiers hide under their beds during a call to arms is fucking embarrassing.  :D

I'd rather have a handful of Norwegian merchant marines.  Get 'em a bit liquored up, and they can take on anybody.

There are no more Norwegian merchant marines. The only thing Norwegian about the Norwegian merchant fleet today is the location of the summer home that the owners can only spend 90 days a year in for tax reasons.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

The one directly facing your King(?) is quite pretty.  They should ditch the silly round hats though - I'm sure it doesn't help morale.

Aren't these the lot that have a Scottish penguin as their commander?

Is this the unit that has a penguin as a colonel?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

WTF.  I would think that at that age you'd be going on pure adrenaline & ready for a fight if you thought the shit was hitting the fan.  Those cowards need to be purged from the ranks-- whatever their functional day-to-day role is, they're soldiers & should be expected to act as such.

Well I would think even cowards could find the courage to show up for a drill :P

All ceremonial units have silly hats.

I'd rather have a Norwegian Bik...wait...does Norway have a Bikini Team, or only Sweden?

The Silly hats look like those ones for the elite Italian units.  That's not a good sign.
