To be fair they don't really need an Army since NATO assures their defense and the only thing they have to fear is the odd polar bear coming ashore.
Kia Ora, welcome to Stewart Island. Our island offers a special experience - a glimpse into a simpler, slower lifestyle, in rhythm with the sea and the tides, attuned to the natural world of bush and beach.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

Man Cuts Off Penis In Pizza Parlour
Tuesday, 24th April 2007, 09:12
Surgeons battling to save a man's penis after he hacked it off in a restaurant have sewn it back on - in the first operation of its kind in the UK.
Stunned witnesses told how the man jumped up onto a table, dropped his trousers and cut his penis off in front of horrified diners in a packed pizza restaurant.
Police sprayed the deranged man with CS gas before recovering his lost organ from the restaurant floor.
Surgeons at St Thomas's Hospital have attempted to reattach his missing appendage, but have not yet confirmed whether it was a success.
The Royal College of Surgeons said that it was the first time that the operation had been attempted in this country.
The 35 year-old Polish man seized a knife from the kitchen before slicing off his manhood in Zizzi's pizza restaurant on the Strand on Sunday evening, stunning the runners and spectators who had flocked to the eaterie after the London marathon.
A witness described how diners who had been enjoying meal screamed and fled as the man waved the knife in the air, and several people were treated for shock after witnessing the horrific spectacle.
Stuart McMahon, a sales rep who was in the restaurant, said: "This guy came running in then charged into the kitchen, got a massive knife and started waving it about.
"Everyone was screaming and running out as he jumped on a table, dropped his trousers and popped his penis out. Then he cut it off. I couldn't believe it.
"The staff were really upset and there was blood everywhere."
Police are still trying to identify the man, who will be assessed by psychiatrists and is expected to be detained under the Mental Health Act for his own safety.
A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: "We were called at 9.00pm on Sunday to a restaurant on the Strand to reports of a man in possession of a knife.
"Officers attended to discover a man believed to be 30-40 years old suffering from an injury.
"He was taken to a south London hospital in a stable condition. No one else was injured and his injuries are believed to be self inflicted."
