The Danish Army Intelligence Centre (Danish: Hærens Efterretningscenter, HEC), is a collection of all intelligence units, created by the Danish Defence Agreement 2013-2017. It was created after lessons learned in Afghanistan and Iraq.[3] HEC, apart from army intelligence, also supports the army's NCO school with administrative, logistical and financial support.[4]
