Asgaard – German Security Group (founded in 2007) is a German private military company. In May 2010, Asgaard secured a contract with Somali politician , which in turn sparked controversy in Germany. According to spokespersons for the German Institute for International and Security Affairs and the Düsseldorf Institute for Foreign and Security Policy, Darman is a politically unimportant player in Somalia, whose political clout may change considerably if he acquires armed security. That over a hundred former German soldiers would begin to play a part in Somali politics led to discussion in the German Bundestag. Politicians spoke of a "fall from grace," but there appeared to be little that could be done, since the German government had for years neglected to draw up rules for private military

Politicians spoke of a "fall from grace," but there appeared to be little that could be done, since the German government had for years neglected to draw up rules for private military companies. In June 2010 the chairman of the Reservist Association of the Bundeswehr, major Gerd Höfer, wrote a letter to Asgaards manager Thomas Kaltegärtner and asked him to resign from the association. Kaltegärtner is staff sergeant in reserve. (en)
