Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, in full camouflage gear, demonstrates her combat and first aid skills to the media as part of a three-week military training course in Almnas, Sweden, to prepare her for international peacekeeping missions, March 18, 2003. The 25-year-old princess, the oldest of the three children of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, practiced combat skills, marksmanship, first aid and chemical warfare safety with 41 other men and women at the Swedish armed forces' peacekeeping training ground south of Stockholm. Enlisting for military service is obligatory for men in Sweden but only a third actually undergo training. For women it is voluntary and about 16,000 men and women undergo military service every year.

Actually her mother is from Brazil, of German descent. Hence the dark eyes and brown hair.

Sorry, I don't have a link to the story. It was posted on the Day in the Life of Pres.Bush thread a while back, with a link. It was an armed forces publication, if I recall.
