mls Posted April 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Very nice that he also met Aussie troops! Perhaps one of our Aussie members would know (or find) where to search for possible photos of the meeting? He missed the State Council yesterday, then. They must have left Denmark Tuesday, if they arrived Wednesday night. Bigger version of the nice pic of meeting the Australian (special) forces https://scontent-amt2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13076558_1006859882700382_2190671193972129859_n.jpg?oh=b79cfd24325e3d824f1eb171a175e26c&oe=57BD1CAB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
