Löjtnant Lars Nilsson watched the road from the cupola of his Strv 103 S-Tank. His platoon had been positioned in a treeline waiting for the enemy to appear since the previous day.

About mid-morning the first Soviet vehicles crested a dip in the road. Nilsson’s gunner/driver, Karlsson, spotted it first, “BRDM, 1000 metres, sir,” he stated before ducking back into his hatch to take up his position.

“Enemy vehicles, 1000 metres east, on road, free fire,” Nilsson informed his platoon.

Meanwhile, Karlsson had already shot at the Soviet armoured car. The sabot projectile tore through the lightly armoured vehicle, and its smoking wreck rolled off the road into a tree.

Nilsson then saw the trees dividing a field shaking, before a tank emerged into the field. 

“Tanks, 1500 metres, treeline and field,” he informed the platoon. A ripple of 105mm fire travelled down the platoon’s position.

Both Norway and Denmark were quick to join NATO after its establishment in 1949. However, Sweden and Finland remain neutral, each for their own reasons, but always wary of their massive Soviet neighbour. The Finnish armoured forces field T-72FM1, T-72FM2, and T-55M Soviet tanks with local improvements and newer western technology applied. Their Jääkäri infantry are mounted in BMPs and BTR-60s with missiles, recoilless rifles, and mortars for fire support.

The Swedes are mostly self-sufficient for their military technology with their own unique turretless S-Tank with its autoloader and powerful gun. Their well armed infantry are mounted in the Pbv 302 APC armed with a 20mm autocannon. Supplementing their locally manufactured equipment the Swedes also field Centurion tanks, with upgraded fire-control systems and Explosive Reactive Armour.

The Norwegians and Danes have more conventional equipment, both fielding Leopard 1 tanks in their armoured forces and M113s (including local variants) for their mechanised infantry. The Danes also field two variants of Centurion tanks.

Great to add to the collection
Again, this was an informative book about the character Lisa haha. But like I mentioned in The Bart Book, it only talks about the main character (LIsa) for 50% of the book and the other 50% is about secondary characters. I did enjoy the comic throughout. This is another fun book to be added to my collection.
