      !8/19 when they join, 19/20 when they do this sort of thing, but still. Takes a hell of alot of practise and dedication. I was in the HMKG (Kings Royal Guard, and saw them in action quite often). Theres about 30 ppl selected for the drill division, the remaining 400+ Royal Guards act as guards at the Royal castle and estates, or do normal military drills. My impression of the drill division, were that they were mostly nutcases to be honest. But I was/am also very proud of them.

      Its basicly FSK, Forsvarets Spesialkommando | Special defence command. Hardest there is, which by the fact has put navy seals to shame.

I'm from Portugal , thank you to King Harald and the Norwegian fishermen to make sure that there will always be bacalhau on a Portuguese table.

      ​@@man-kitli1572 Yes. In Norway you are required to serve at least 12 months in the armed forces. If you are a pacifist or are unable to serve otherwise then you can ask for dispensation. But normally every able bodied person between the age of 19 to 44 years old you must carry it out. What branch of the military you serve in is up to you. I was assigned a post in military intelligence. Most of my service consisted in just sitting around playing with computers, lol. (after some basic training of course, learning how to use weapons and other things). But it was an experience well spent and I met a lot of nice people.

    In Norway, both men and women have an equal obligation to serve in the armed forces. Everyone is called up, but not all have the necessary qualifications to serve. Indeed more want to serve than the ones taken for service. The conscripts serve for 12 months.
    Norway has also developed a unique seals team training course for women, acknowledging that women in some areas do have advantages over men and that their service in specialized military units is needed. Armies discovered this in places like Afghanistan where it was impossible for male soldiers to gather intelligence by communicating with local women. Female soldiers don’t have this barrier, and were essential in such intelligence gathering.
