| Hi! Hi all. Im new here - but have already made alot of comments and a few posts. So far its been fun and I look forward to more! A few things about myself: Im 26 years old and live in Copenhagen. I love a good debate! (drives my friends and occasional girlfriend mad  ). My army career was short lived due to a shoulder injury i got while playing handball (european handball not the same as the states). But its fast, violent, fun and with lots of goals - so really you good folks from the other side of the pond should give it a go  . Anyway during my short term in service I was stationed with the Royal Guard Hussars Regiment (the oldest regiment of hussars still in operations) 3rd Batalion (Armoured infantry - Recce). Now I study history at the University of Copenhagen, but I'm takin a "break" and going to Zimbabwe this fall to work as a Care worker with MS. My biggest interests are military history and politics.Lookin forward to being here - cheers |

| Hey Daniel, welcome to the forum, nice to see more countries represented. {Too many Canucks, Aussies & Americans already!  }Interesting to see someone from Copenhagen, did you know that we have a similar statue in Vancouver based on your "Little Mermaid"?

Actually our own little mermaid statue embarrases me at times (although it represents a very important piece of litterature and a great story). I mean - jeez - its the only national monument that most foreigners know about and its like 2 feet and has a factory backdrop  Luckily lots of other stuff thats great here hehe. | |

| I will be honest the first thing I had to see when I visited Copenhagen was the Little Mermaid statue. I actually like Copenhagen.

| Hey Daniel, already into some good debates with you - hoping we don't go down the road to the "dark" side and get ugly. Welcome!!
