Here's a headline that caught my eye.

Note: The headline is a couple of days old so you have to enter "Swiss Army" in the search area to read the full report.

I am like you. I had to smile when I read the details. The 2 countries are such good neighbors neither want the media to get out of proportion.

I guess if you invade someone and you don't know it--and they don't know they've been invaded--then everything is pretty OK. this is pretty funny.

And if you did invade Lichtenstein, what would you have to show for it?

We almost got into trouble one time during training for invading a farm in order to get to the other side's HQ. We had to hide from cars on a public road and dodge cow manure, but we were able to drop a tear gas grenade in the colonel's hooch.

Luckily the farmer didn't know he'd been invaded either!

I loved Liechtenstein's attitude. "F' it! Let's go bowling, dude."

GPS can be a pain in the **** when you're walking around in the forest, and there are some weather/atmospheric conditions that render it about as useful as brick.

I find it hilarious that Liechtenstein is about the size of Beloit.

Sherri and I travelled through Liechtenstein. Besides Great Britain, Liechtenstein was the only other country to stamp our visa. We got there during their weekly flea market. All we saw was the town square with the flea market, the post office, and a food stall where I got a chance to use the all the German I know: "Khafe bitte. Danke."
