              Again another newspaper (I picked these up last month while in Italy), now depicting RSI troops (November 1943).
              All wearing camo which became fashionable during the RSI period!

                    Another period image. Note Norwegian liberation celebration flag.
                    These Swedish trained and equiped Norwegian troops never needed to fire a shot, re-entered Norway after Germany's capitulation.

                      Other side...note Norwegian nationality sleeve flag on Swedish made overcoat as issued to Norwegian troops in exile in Sweden (1942-1945).
                      The (British style) sleeve rank chevron is upside down for some reason...still need to fix that.. came like this... (set from a fellow WAF member from Norway,
                      Thanks Trond-Inge!)
