Remnant of the Viking’s spirit !!!

Back in the mid-1960s when I was a young tank crewman stationed in Germany, we could travel dirt-cheap via Eurorail pass and most of us hit Scandanavia at least a few times. The comparisons were....interesting. But one thing I recall: The park police in Sweden carried swords, not ceremonial, but gen-you-ine cavalry sabers, about 4 feet long [that's a meter-plus, Eurotrash!]

They had none of the hippie disorder and drunkenness that chartacterized Holland and Denmark, among other happy spots, including much of the USA, in the same timeframe.

I wonder if those swords are still sitting in some Malmo basement police armory, just waiting to be taken out of storage. It's time; the invaders are back....

Norwegians were Vikings. Swedes were their bitches.
