Aren't they advance parties/recce for a bigger force?

    We are talking about tripwire forces, so they are basically there so that the invaders have to shoot at Brits, French, Finns, ect. instead off just Greenlanders and Danes.
    Their mission is a political one, symbolizing the European support and if war comes to die on camera.

    Advance parties makes it sound like they are doing some reconnaissance, mapping enemy positions and fortifications.

    They are planning for military exercises. Probably just checking where the toilets are are and how many barrels of sauerkraut can they fit in the pantry.
