  • 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.
    • WWII British Battledress
    • Military beret with a Norwegian die-cast cap badge insignia showing the crowned cypher/monogram H7 of King Haakon VII inside an oak wreath
    • Norwegian flag on cloth badge on upper sleeve
    • Short webbing anklets (gaiters) and ankle boots
    • Belt with pistol holster
etc.
  • REGULAR INFANTRYMAN 1914. In 1914 a gray uniform was adopted. The soldier has a cap with earflaps. The jacket has outside pockets. Here he stands as a bicycle orderly with the mandatory model 1894 Krag Jørgensen rifle.‘'
    • ’Mountain-grey’ tunic and trousers with red piping. In 1914 the new 'mountain-grey' (fjellgrå) uniform with red piping were standard for all troops. The colour had been in use by some units since 1902 and varied from dark green to clear grey. The uniform was worn with a kepi style cap, but different ski caps or winter caps ('finnmarksluer') were also used. The officer's tunic had pleated pockets, the other rank's tunic had pockets without pleats, and the light summer tunic was without breast pockets.
    • Winter cap (ski cap) with ear flaps and national cockade
    • Krag–Jørgensen rifle M1894
    • Brown leather belt with cartridge pouches and bayonet
    • Bicycle
  • MASTER SERGEANT 1894. The master sergeant was the highest ranking non-commissioned officer in the artillery. He wore an officer’s uniform without officer's insignia. The uniform is an everyday uniform, with adjutant tassel on the shoulder. For parade he had pompon on the kepi, epaulettes and red wool sash around his waist. Typical for the artillery in the 1800s is the bullet holder in a bandolier over the shoulder.

  • 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.
  • MENIG INFANTERIST 1914. I 1914 ble det tatt i bruk en fjellgrå feltuniform. Soldaten har lue med øreklaffer. Jakken har fått utvendige lommer. Her står han som sykkelordonans med det obligatoriske Krag Jørgensen geværet mod. 1894.
  • STYKKJUNKER 1894. Stykkjunkeren var høyeste underoffiser i artilleriet. Han har offisers uniform uten offisersdistinksjoner. Uniformen er daglig uniform, med adjutantdusk på skulderen. Til parade hadde han pompong på kepien, epåletter og rødt skjerf i ull rundt livet. Typisk for artilleriet på 1800-tallet er patrontasken i gull bandolær over skulderen.
