Amfibieregementet (Amf 1), Swedish Marines based at Berga, approaching Galärparken with Stridsbåt 90H, Svävare 2000 and Lätt Trossbåt . I almost wished I had asked them for a ride across...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HMS Falken, a sail training ship, the Corvette HMS Gävle (Gävle Class) and the minesweeper HMS Koster (Koster Class) was moored a little further away.

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the site, there was also all sorts of displays from military bands, standard military equipment and of course weapons!

 

 

 

That is a HMG Simulator in case you are wondering...

 

 

 

Now, I hope all you shipyard junkies feel inspired and gets to work ;-)

 

And no, No Visby. We never get a Visby up north. Only Karlskrona Navy Days get Visby.
