SECTION IV MILITARY SITUATION Iceland has no military, naval or air forces and has declared itself permanently neutral. The constitution provides that service for the defense of the country can be made mandatory on every man capable of bearing arms, but supporting legislation has not been enacted. Internal order is maintained by a police organization responsible to the Minister of Justice. Its present strength is about 100 uniformed policemen, most of whom are used to preserve order and direct traffic in Reykjavik. Iceland has no forces to resist aggression, and the sparsity of population makes it highly improbable that any organized underground resistance would be formed in the case of occupation by a hostile power.
