LOL, Denmark sends their troops in Iraq...a snowplough??

Operation Desert ... snowplough?
The Sydney Morning Herald, July 10 2003

Danish troops in Iraq who have groaned about the sweltering heat and defective materiel sent by their military were astonished to find a snowplough and lawnmowers in a recent supply shipment, a red-faced military spokesman admitted.

Given their gripes about being given armoured vehicles with no air conditioning in the Iraqi desert, the 380-strong contingent stationed in Qurna, 75km from Basra, could not believe their eyes when they discovered the lawnmowers, a snowplough and even salt for icy roads.
