Being a retired U.S. Marine and having spent a considerable amount of time posted to Stockholm and living in Sweden for several years as an expatriate, my heart swells with pride at the military cooperation between my two favorite countries.

What makes you the most ok jarhead?

It's nice to see how extremely good the M/90 pattern is in a Swedish context compared to the digital pattern of the Americans. Just in the interviews one can see the difference 😄

From Gotland, Sweden: Good news from the defense forces for us on Gotland! For 20 years of my life, I have defended Gotland mainly as an artilleryman, but also as an instructor on old P18s. Until Sweden's parliament "Riksdagen" put the nail in the coffin, as they thought, as wrong as when the Riksdagen made the same mistake after the First World War. I thought the shutdown was a crazy decision. But I did not resist because my feeling was that this will never work in war. When I rolled out with my unit on a war unit exercise, or a simple planning with the unit, for example a special exercise commander, part of the Gotland Brigade. My sense of the environment - materiel, equipment, skills, was something that I had seen from old WWII war movies. One thing is clear, history always repeats itself! Russia after the war, beaten back, humiliated, again in poverty and stagnation, the unnatural loss of loved ones, many recurring from the illegal war, injured physically and mentally, very heavy weapons.... I think it is well deserved the Russian society! A witch's cauldron worthy them! I like it! Honor Ukraine! Слава Україні!
