Thank you .

Leading by example. I think it would be at neat documentary just interviewing the cadre and other Soldiers over the course of the training. Although I am sure it was challenging, I bet she had a blast living with and interacting with the common folk. Good for her and congrats to Belgium on having a future leader like this.

Those who would rule must first learn to serve. Good on Princess Elisabeth! She does herself and her country proud. Princess Elisabeth is a Valkyrie! This American loves Belgium and its people. I lived on Kleine Geeststraat in Sterrebeek for three years when I was young. I went to BAS off Tramlaan. It was like a beautiful dream when I think back on it all. Moules au vin blanc, pomme frites, Dame Blanches and white chocolate from Leonidas in Le Grand Place were staples. There was a little town called Diegem that was so picturesque, so beautiful that even the ignorant American boy I was then remembers it now decades later with intense clarity. When I remember my time in Belgium, it brings tears of happiness to my eyes. I was very, very happy there. That was 1981-1984. I don't even know if the Belgium I remember and treasure so dearly exists anymore. Things are probably very different now. My memory of Belgium is probably just like a brief snapshot in time of a lost, magical place. But regardless, the Belgians were uniformly nice to me and I will never forget their kindness. I will always carry Belgium with me in my mind and heart until the day I die. Thank you, Belgium and Belgians! You have an eternal friend in me!

België heeft ook de scheiding der machten, vrij wel alle moderne democratieën hebben dit, onze vorst is traditioneel en historisch gezien gewoon de opperbevelhebber van het leger, het is doorheen de tijd nooit echt veranderd. Het geeft aan dat de koning zijn verantwoordelijkheid neemt in het beschermen van het vaderland en eensgelijk dat het leger in naam van de koning optreedt. Wat misschien wel anders is dan bij jullie is dat elke soldaat een eedaflegging tegenover de koning moet afleggen en natuurlijk ook tegenover het vaderland, jullie hebben waarschijnlijk wel een eedaflegging maar ik ben niet zeker of dat ook tegenover de koning is.

I have a son..... all the best to her future. long live princess.
