The BBMC history

 About BBMC


 
History
The Blue Berets Motorcycle Club (BBMC) is an international organization with members in Sweden, Denmark and Faeroe Islands. The basic idea was formed in the spring of 1999 by UN-Veterans from both Sweden, Denmark and Faeroe Islands. 

8 of January 2001 our logotype and basic regulations was founded in Gothenburg Sweden. 1 of April 2001 Blue Berets MC Denmark was established and this date will be honoured in future. Our members are either active-duty peacekeepers or veterans returned from peacekeeping operations all over the world. We have been in conflicts in Congo, Gaza, Sinai, Lebanon, Cyprus, Namibia, Kuwait, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afganistan etc.

  Goal
Our prime purpose is to continue the comradeship from overseas duties abroad 
and national / international corporations with other UN/NATO veteran organisations worldwide. We will also support our veterans and their families as far as we are 
able to.

At present time (2002) BBMC have plans for new chapters in Norway, Island and Finland, this due to there is a close and long time corporation between the veteran associations in the nordic countries.

  Policy 
BBMC is neutral in all respects, both political and in the MC-culture. We do not get involved with the private business of other motorcycle clubs or their problems. We strive to respect the freedom of each and everyone. Blue Berets MC is open for all types of motorcycles and we are divided into districts which runs by 4 members under the supervision of the main board.

  Members
Both male and female personel are welcome. The demand is that you have done duty abroad in peacekeeping operations in UN, NATO, Defence Force, Police Force, Red Cross or other similar organizations. The person who wants to apply must have conducted satisfied international duty abroad. The member also have to own (or within 12 month have to get) a motorcycle of any given brand and have a valid drivers licence for motorcycle.

  Membership 
An applicant should get in contact with a member of BBMC either by person or by e-mail. The applicant will get an overall orientation of the BBMC. It is allowed by the district member or the main board to give an applicant a verbal denial to membership if there are things (bad behaviour or a criminal record) which the board seems as non compatible with the main goal of BBMC.

If You would like to join us or perhaps start a local chapter in your own country, please feel free to contact one of the relevant BBMC members below for more information.

We would be more than happy to inform You and help you along.
