The Danish Baton
Danish forces are our valued allies serving throughout the world supporting the UK as well as United Nations duties, we have stood shoulder to shoulder together on many occasions and proud to be associated with them.
The MERT (Medical Emergency Response Team) stretcher that the Baton’s were cut from would of carried Danish forces as well as other allies, therefore crossing all borders, as in the case of all allied forces and families they deserve no less than is rightfully owed them by their service to maintain the freedoms so many enjoy.
