Hi there!

I want to show you remains from the German Uboat Base located in the Skjomen Fjord in the Narvik Area, Norway during the war. After a nice visit at the base area I startet my "climbing" to the top of a mountain near the fjord. It took me almost two hours to ascend the mountain but it was worth it. Some Kriegsmarine seaman had been there before me!

See picture! :)

Hi! I have a couple of odd objects in terms of German Gun Powder Containers I want to show you Gentlemen! Those are placed on the bottom of a shell and are made of cloth material in very good quality.

One bag is from the 3,7 cm anti aircraft ammunition and the other from 12,7 cm ammunition.

Some helmets.

Wow! Fantastic display!!

Hi out there!

I found this dog tag on the shore many years ago when I visited Kafjord in northern Norway. (you know, Tirpitz were located there). Can you help me with the identification?

No markings! I havn?t seen those kind of figures before!

I wonder if one can find something written about the figures or if they just have disappeard into the forgetfulness of history!

Roine

Yes, It?s the same in Sweden and especially in Stockholm. There they still using thick armour plates from Tirpitz to cover temporary repairs in the

roads. Some of the plates are 3 cm thick.

In Tromsoe, where Tirpitz sank, there is a school still having Tirpitz turbines driven something!

Here is some figures which where sold to the public from 1942 to collect money for Winterhilfswerke. They are made in clay and painted. In German they are called Strewwelpeterfiguren. Theese particular figures are called; upper line: Kaspar mit Brezel, Puulinchen von flammen, Mohr mit schirm, Nicolaus - rote mutze, ??, Middle line: Weinenden katze, ?, J?ger mit gr?ner mutze, Daummenlutscher, Stuwwelpeter - stuppige haare, Lower line: ?, Hans-guck-in-der luft, ?, ?, Ludwig - einen arm hoch halten.

Hey! Here is some tinnies I "found" among my KM collection. They have come with some business occation as extra.

Hi again! I have seen a picture once taken of Aviso Grille when she was located in Narvik! I?ll keep my eyes open for pictures!

Hi there Christer!

The German 127 mm and 37 mm shells come from destroyers!

Hi Peter!

Thank you for your detailed report! I can see that the cordite react in the same way as new forms of gun powder in modern shells.

All the best Norstrom
