Usling3.JPGGrave at Lillehammer841 viewsThe back of the pictures reads in old Südderlin writing: Herbert Usling(?), Lillehammer, Norway. The field post number shows him as a member of MG-Btln 13 who died at the battle around Lillehammer on 22.4.1940.
Anyone knowing the church and if the graves are still there or if not, the new location?2 comments
Folketshus.JPGLökken: Folketshus747 viewsSame photo set as the torpedoed Gneisenau, so around June 1940
Fische.JPGfishery harbour720 viewsI think this picture belonged to a Hammerfest/Honingsvag/Repparfjord photo series. It must be taken when MG-Bataillon 13 already had the Edelweiss badges of the mountain troops but before my neighbour visited the technical inspector school in summer 1942 in germany.
BMW.JPGPortait of my neighbour659 viewsThink this photo was done when MG-Bataillon 13 was moved away from the french border to be re-organized for Weserübung at the city of Magdeburg. Normal plans were to do a quick advance from Korsör to Kopenhagen and stay there. Only the heavy losses with Blücher and other ships brought the MG-Bataillon to Norway as a quick and close (Denmark) replacement.1 comments

Leuna.JPGTrooptransporter Leuna637 viewsLeuna And Buenos Aires moved MG-Batallion 13 first to occupy Denmark and then on 17/18 April 1940 to Oslo
Katzen.JPGButchering cats633 viewsI don't know where and when. But there are no Edelweiss badges so MG-Bataillon 13 was not already moved to the mountain troops. I don't know why they are butchering cats. At this time of the war their wasn't hunger. Accidently shoot them while on guard? Trying to hunt and shot cats instead hares? I saw a similiar picture taken in africa, but showing an antelope. From the africa picture i know that the person was drafted before finishing his apprentice as a butcher and he had to prove his knowledge in front of a comitee to do his journeyman's examination

FASTNACHT1-g.JPGCarneval 1941 at Repparfjord614 viewsIt is a bit strange that even carneval parades were not really welcome by the Nazi's in germany this unit did their own far far away from home.
