Summary[edit]

Description
English: Photo taken 2021 of exhibits in Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, a community-based museum in Rakkestad, Norway. The museum showcases around 3000 artifacts related to Nazi Germany's occupation of Norway and the Norwegian resistance during World War II 1940 – 1945 and the corresponding historical era:
The Home Front Museum in Rakkestad: "American parachute. There were two types of parachutes used in the drops. The one you see here is American and has broad cords. These could carry heavier loads. The parachutes used by the British had narrow, round cords. There could also be many different colors on the parachutes that arrived."


Norsk bokmål: Foto tatt sommeren 2021 av utstilte gjenstander i Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, et lokalt krigshistorisk museum i Rakkestad, Norge. Museet presenterer rundt 3000 gjenstander fra Norge under andre verdenskrig, Nazi-Tysklands okkupasjon av landet, hjemmefronten og motstandskampen i perioden 1940–45 og fra tida like etter krigen:
Hjemmefrontmuseet i Rakkestad: Amerikansk fallskjerm. Det var to typer fallskjermer som ble brukt i slipp. Denne dere ser her, er amerikansk og har brede snorer. Disse kunne ta tyngre last. De fallskjermene som britene brukte, hadde smale, runde snorer. Det kunne også være mange forskjellige fager på de fallskjermene som kom.
