Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden has begun a special officer training course. On August 19, the Royal House of Sweden announced that the 47-year-old crown princess wants to "deepen her commitment to the armed forces and gain a deeper understanding of tactics, military science and military strategy."
According to People magazine, the training is part of the crown princess' desire to continually expand her knowledge in preparation for her future mission as head of state. In the new photos, Victoria, who will wear the rank of cadet during the course, can be seen wearing a green military uniform.
