In late summer 2024, more than 800 Danish soldiers will be deployed to Latvia. Here they will be an important part of the NATO Forces that is going to deter Russia from attacking one of the three Baltic countries.
The threat is real and the defense of Denmark begins in Eastern Europe.
Prior to the deployment to Latvia, the soldiers have been in Grafenwöhr in the south-eastern part of Germany. The training range is Northern Europe's largest shooting range and gives the Danish combat troops a completely unique opportunity to shoot with precision - both with small arms, infantry fighting vehicles and tanks.
In this video you can meet four of the soldiers who will soon be traveling to Latvia and hear their thoughts on being a soldier in the Army at a time when the threat is high and the security situation serious.
