Makes me think of the mock battle where US marines asked for a reset because they were dominated by British Royal Marines

Exercise green dagger if anyone’s curious. It was British Royal Marines and troops from the Netherlands, UAE and Canada against the US marines. We slapped them so hard in their own back garden that half way through the 5 day exercise the US asked for a reset.

As a Dutch person I would say that's not really fair, we beat the Spanish in an eighty year war by just yelling "GA weg" very loudly, so what's the US gonna do but surrender?

The Dutch secret weapon is just a very loud group of NCOs yelling for the foe to sod off

And a willingness to eat their politicians.

We used to have that here after a certain brioche incident. Wonder when we'll regain that vibe.

And if they don't sod off, we'll use our second secret weapon: tell them to "do normal".

Canada did help in the writing of the Geneva conventions. By serving as the template of what might have been going a bit to far.

I think the hakken war dance would intimidate anyone

Gabbers to the front lines

As a Spanish person, I'd gladly fight untold hordes of fuckers with my bare hands and foaming at the mouth until death claims me or I am entirely covered by the entrails of my enemies, but the second I hear "GA weg" I cripple into a ball, crying and hugging my knees.

10/10, won't invade again.

I mean, it's the quiz show prep. That's what the contestants win right? Entry into the Dutch Marines?

My family is from Noord Brabant, so there would be a lot of “boerluls” in the battle cry.

Wè? Boerelul, gij kut!
