Note about payment in Norwegian crowns. This unit was equipped with Molch.

This was the amount of Norwegian kroner he had and was required to hand in for exchange into German Reichsmarks. The exchange rate wasn't exactly favourable as you can imagine, if he got anything back at all.

The Germans weren't allowed to take any foreign currency with them when they were sent back to the continent after the war.
