Oh you already gave them a 10, well... they did do quite well in Musa Quala. But 10 is almost Foreign Legion and equal to Marines... though come to think of it the Marines I have spoken to all have great respect for their Danish Allies. That would warrant a 5 for the rest of DANCON then. But I would say that it should probably rather be 5 and 3 or something like that. The Danish training is very different from Boot Camp, and though physical fitness and toughness are important our training focuses more on individual initiative and education so to speak. All the times I have been part of the Danish military we prided ourselves that our most important "weapon" was our heads and our ability to think for ourselves when the situation called for it.

More tomorrow.
