SysAdmin in practice

Danish flexible support ship Absalon in port in Valetta, Malta, en-route to the gulf of Aden to join TF-150 in the Gulf of Aden.

The vessel carries fast interceptor vessels, RIBs and helicopters, all powerful tools in the fight against piracy, and in enforcing global rule sets.

This is what we need more of - vessels capable of
sustained operations both far away as well as on our own shores, securing stability, "administrating the system."








Only thing that could have made this better - a Norwegian or Swedish, most likely the former, special operations team operating from this vessel in conjunction with the Danish crew.
