Congratulations on your brother gsdshow. I truly respect and appreciate what the US forces are doing to keep our way of life safe.
There's no army nor navy in Iceland, Never has been in our 1037 years of existence. But we do train "special police" who do go out and work with the UN..
My namesake "Olafur Tryggvason", (my grandmothers brother), joined the US Navy and fought in the Korean war. After his tours, got stationed in the Icelandic Naval base due to his splendid linguistic abilities (spoke Icelandic fluently) which he of course hated. (joining the navy to get stationed in Iceland of all places.)
Kudos to all the US armed forces...
(well, I took the pledge of allegiance every day in school till we moved back to Iceland when I was 10)

And a Happy Veteren's Day to all too!!!!!! My son did 3 tours with the 3/4 and we honored his lost comrades by naming 2 of our pups for them.
