I heard their training involves driving on Place de l'Étoile and the Périphérique. Russian solders will never know what hit them.

This should be happening in every European country.

It's happening in the UK under Operation Interflex with the involvement of a number of other countries: Canada, New Zealand, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Lithuania, The Netherlands, Australia and Romania.

AFAIK it also happened at least in Poland, Germany and Netherlands. Not sure about numbers and if it's still ongoing though.
