:: Sure, let’s go with ALT 2. Well, both the sources cited after the paragraph supports the claim. The online source gives you the following using Google Translate: “She participated in two wars, the Schleswig-Holstein War of 1848–1851, when she was used to transport Swedish and Norwegian soldiers to Funen and to patrol Danish waters, and during the Dano-Prussian War of 1864 as flagship in a Norwegian-Swedish squadron in the Skagerrak and Kattegat.”. The book basically says the same thing with slightly different words. [[User:Yakikaki|Yakikaki]] ([[User talk:Yakikaki|talk]]) 20:38, 11 February 2026 (UTC)
