Dancon March DANCON is short for Danish Contingent and the march has been a tradition with the Danish Defence since 1972 when the Royal Danish Army was deployed on Cyprus. The march invites foreign troops, allied with Denmark, to participate in the 25 or 100 km march. Apart from Cyprus, Dancon marches have taken place in Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Eritrea and the Gulf of Aden.

Famous quotes containing the word march:
“This is the village where the funeral
Stilted its dusty march over deep ruts
Up the hillside covered with queen’s lace
To the patch of weeds known finally to all.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
