For the first time, the Swedish LGBT members of the armed forces were allowed to march in the StockholmPride parade - and it happened during EuroPride.
Military in uniforms in the streets of Sweden has a bad reputation since the Ådalen shootings in 1931. Now they were performing YMCA,with a good sense for the beat!
A popular newcomer were the fire fighters in Stockholm. No openly gay firefighters are known in Stockholm, but it was a decision made by the chief in a desire to get a more diverse staff. And, they were able to make the loudest noise!
Two party-leaders were walking in the parade (Labour party and the Left party), and two ministers (finance and equality).
