The Norwegian Military Tent Sheet System KNAPPETELT

[Tosh JPN]

Hi,
I had some Camo Knappetelter.
Those stamps on back side usually say" Hæren "(Norwegian Army?)

The other day I got some from Norway.
The stamp says" H.V." (Norwegian Home Guard?)
I had never seen this .

In German Heer is the land army different to Navy and Airforce.

I think you’re right. Hæren = Norwegian Army and Heimevernet (HV) = Norwegian Home Guard

I love these Knappetelter so much..
Each OD piece has its own beauty, camo even their backsides...

Yes, quite a lot of military equipment is very beautifully designed and camouflage patterns usually look for me like a piece of modern art. I think the old ones were actually painted by artists.

I recently went camping with my kids and had a great time in this awesome Norwegian military tent.
It was super spacious and comfy.
I can only imagine the intense training the old soldiers had to endure under this tent, but here we are, using it for a fun modern camping trip.

That looks great! The camo is pretty funky too

I found this video by a Japanese camper:

I bought myself one of these recently. I set it up as an Adirondack style shelter with the wide corner over a ridgeline at knee height (if that makes sense). It was just roomy enough to fit me and my kit underneath lying down, but I was definitely not cramped. An amazing piece of kit, and the fabric is tough and waterproof. (by the way if anyone knows how to upload videos from the camera roll app onto here I will send some pics)

Should be some tips here.
Only norwegian I`m afraid.
