When I was trying to find out if someone Icelandic could serve in Norway's forces, I actually emailed them. Finally got a response today, here's what they said:
An Icelandic citizen may serve temporarily in the Norwegian Armed Forces under the following conditions:
- On temporary contract in a particular international military operation, for example, 6 months in Afghanistan (In 2005, a departmental agreement was signed, which governs matters related to Icelandic strength contributions to Norwegian-led forces in Afghanistan. The cooperation between Norway and Iceland were further strengthened in 2007 when the two countries signed an agreement on increased training of Icelandic personnel in Norway)
- After military leadership training in Norway, duties are imposed on the Norwegian Armed Forces, usually in scale 1 to 1 (3 years school - 3 years duty) . This means that Icelandic nationals who have completed education in Norway perform their duties within a military unit in Norway (not international operations). This does not provide a permanent position after completion of duties.
So, someone like Stalker/Redline aka Ragnar Ragnarsson could only serve with them for a short-term fixed period on an international op or could train there, do a duty period and then would get RTU to Iceland. Guess that means either swapping Ragnar's nationality or tweaking his background to born-in-Iceland-of-non-Icelandic-parents or something.
