The Norwegian culture is steeped in a rich and very diverse background which includes that of the Viking era. The Norwegian Home Guard provided a very authentic event, setting up a "proving-grounds" for the American service members to become Vikings. Testing many of the skills that they learned out in the field during the FTX (Field Training Exercise) the three platoons went head to head, working as a team to show who were "real Vikings." After a Viking inception ceremony, the newly minted Vikings shared an exquisite meal provided by the Home Guard showcasing the many Norwegian foods prepared in their country.
