Turns out this is old news, but I just heard about this...
Back on the morning of March 1st, around 170 Swiss infantry soldiers - armed with their Swiss Army Knives and rifles (but no ammunition), while on a training exercise, wandered more than a mile across the unmarked border with the tiny principality of Liechtenstein.
OK, that's bad, and they turned around when they figured out what they did.
Here's some quick stats - Liechtenstein is only 62 square miles big. The last estimate of the population - 33,987. The Swiss army is 220,000 strong. Liechtenstein? No military.
I suppose that these guys shouldn't be confused with the Swiss Guard at the Vatican...
So, which is worse - that the Swiss invaded, or that nobody in Liechtenstein had even noticed the soldiers.
