Is this a proper name for the article? --PaxEquilibrium 09:42, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
Not at all, as Switzerland in fact is responsible for the defence of Liechtenstein. (Even if they are not entitled to dislocate troops without Liechtenstein permission.) Jakro64 22:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
I also agree that this is not a very qualified name, which gives the feeling that the military did
actually attack during this invasion. The 2003 invasion of Iraq is the name of the iraq war article. I didn't even hear of this incident until very late. Wwicki 07:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

I find this statement to not be of Wikipedia quality. Liechtenstein accepted any apologies and that was that. This statement is not backed up by any sources and therefore there is no evidence whatsoever that this was an embarrassment. If you can find me a source that would be great.

“The BBC's Paul Legg says the incident is embarrassing for the Swiss but not as bad as the one in 1985.” [1], second paragrpah from the bottom. – Zntrip 16:22, 17 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
I also find "embarassing" to be a little...unappropriate. Why embarassing? Embarassing maybe for the lieutenant who made the navigational error, but only in front of his troops. It's not the first time something like this has happened, and won't be the last. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.2.180.180 (talk • contribs) 12:36, 8 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Yes - this isn't the first time something like this has happened. The reference to 1985 refers to an artillery exercise - strong winds blew a couple of rockets off course, they landed in forests on the wrong side of the border and caused a forest fire - Switzerland had to pay quite a lot of compensation for the damage —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wren-3 (talk • contribs) 15:01, 13 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
The self defence Army of a neutral country accidently invades another undefended country and you ask if it is embarassing? Since invasion threatens the very existance of a country it is taken very seriously by most countries. Image if the US or British army crossed an international border by mistake. 82.212.19.84 17:12, 23 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
