  • MAJOR IN BRITISH UNIFORM 1945. During the build-up of Norwegian forces in Great Britain during the Second World War 1940-1945 British battle uniforms were put into use, although not systematically until 1941. For non-commissioned officer’s British insignia were used, while the officers used the Norwegian system of stars and braids on the collar. The anklets and boots are British models. Starting in 1945 the uniform was changed as the British uniforms were changed, but only in details. The uniforms of British and Canadian models, were in use until 1954. The pistol holster was worn on both the left and right side. Here it is the way then Crown Prince Olav wore the pistol holster as Norwegian commander-in-chief.

  • MAJOR I BRITISK UNIFORM 1945. Under oppsetting av norske styrker i Storbritannia under krigen 1940-1945 ble det tatt i bruk britiske battleuniformer. Først i 1941 ble dette satt i system. For underoffiserer ble britiske distinksjoner tatt i bruk, mens offiserene benyttet det norske systemet med stjerner og tresser på kraven. Ankletsene og støvlene er av engelsk modell. Fra 1945 ble uniformen endret etter som de britiske ble forandret, men det var bare endringer av detaljer. Uniformene, både av britisk og kanadisk modell var i bruk til 1954. Pistolhylsteret ble båret både på venstre og høyre side. Her er det lik daværende kronprins Olav bar pistoltasken som norsk øverstkommanderende.
