Description
English: Photo taken at the Lofoten War Memorial Museum (Norwegian: Lofoten Krigsminnemuseum) in Svolvær, Norway's largest exhibition of uniforms and smaller items related to the Second World War and the German occupation of Norway 1940 – 1945:
  • Mannequin/display dummy wearing a German field uniform for a mountain/alpine soldier (Gebirgsjäger) from regiment 139 in the German army (Wehrmacht Heer) in service in Norway, with an Edelweiss badge on the ski cap (Bergmütze), captain's insignia (Hauptmann) on the shoulder straps, puttees and gaiters around the ankles, low mountain boots, and an Austrian MP 34 (Maschinenpistole 34) Steyr submachine gun.
  • Mannequin wearing a Norwegian military uniform and field equipment as it was worn during Hitler's attack on Norway in the spring of 1940 during World War II:
    • Norwegian Army's "mountain gray" (more spruce green) uniform for enlisted soldiers, model 1914, with red piping along the collar, covered with a snow camouflage suit consisting of a white anorak/smock and thin, white overtrousers
    • Soft peaked cap/field cap/winter cap with foldable flaps for ears and neck and a cockade (rosette) in the national colors in front.
