That’s interesting, after the Zaventem bombings it was surreal to see Belgian military with rifles in the train stations as Belgians are so unused to seeing guns, most police dont even carry them for nigh on 30 years now. What was the point then?

I think it was more for the US audience though they did have them at traffic stops. We had a couple of bomb threats at ISB in Boitsfort. I think the non EEC community had a little more over site than the locals. We had an area referred to as the American Ghetto in Rhodes St Genes with the houses larger and all painted white.
