Why is marching a topic for a maritime forum? Well, firstly, it's about the cooperation between active and reserve service personnel - and there are also comrades in blue cloth, and secondly, Bremen is a state on the coast!

This traditional branch of the Royal Netherlands Navy is the spearhead of the country's crisis response forces and claims to be able to be deployed anywhere and under any circumstances. There has been plenty of evidence of this since the Corps Mariniers was founded. Access marineforum digital+ Are you already a registered user? Now...
