    Description

    Just a little History I found on the internet:
    The Danish Vaaben brothers
    were a Danish association of war veterans from
    the Schleswig wars
    . The association was founded in
    1859
    by veterans of the
    Three Years' War
    and throughout its lifetime was open only to persons who had participated in the two wars. Therefore, the association also had a natural expiration time, and in
    1930
    the association was merged with
    the co-operative Danish Defense Brother Companies
    . The last brother of arms (i.e. a member of the company)
    [1]
    died in
    1941
    and
    the following year
    the company ceased. The first department was founded in
    Aarhus
    on 1 October
    as the
    Vaaben brothers' association for Aarhus and The Surrounding Area
    , and on
    31 October
    the association in
    Horsens
    was established. Since then, local branches followed in many Danish cities.
