With the Navy and Army busy, why leave out the MPs too? A bit of crime scene investigation fun.

Are you a secret admirer of some exotic foreign race ?

If by foreign race you mean Norwegians, of which I am one having been born here and whos family traces their lineage to the earliest of peoples in the country, then yes, I guess so. My admiration for Norway isn't exactly secret, though.

If not, then no.

Yo dude i know that you are a patriotic Norwegian. I just thought maybe you were planning an out of the box solution.
 
The Navy and Army aren't the only ones exercising, the Norwegian Home Guard is actively involved in exercise Viking Ymer. These photos are of pre-exercise preparations.

Make sure to click through page 46 to see additional updates. There's been a lot going on today ranging from the start of Flotex 2016, to new intimate pics of the inside of Norwegian Ula class submarine KNM Utstein and the ongoing exercises of the Norwegian Army and Home Guard.

And these are just the beginning!! Plenty more photos to come once the exercises begin in earnest.

BWT, they are still soldiers and do carry weapons.

Ah!!! Remember the times when the Nikon F series were the only cameras considered rugged enough for the Sub-Arctic and the desert. The times of the manual Leicas and Nikons, well they are past now.

Thanks for the great pics.
 
The Nansen class (above) replaced the aging Oslo class frigates.

Two of the five Oslo class frigates were sunk as targets - Trondheim by NSM, Stavanger by DM2A3 - and one, Oslo, sunk in an accident.

If you can't tell, it's exercise season in Norway. You have the Navy and Coast Guard at Flotex 2016, the Army training with the USMC Europe and the HV and the Air Force will get in on the action at Flotex too, albeit at a later date.
