Welcome to the forums Wendy.

The viking ship is the insignia of the "Telemark Battalion".

(not all of that info is 100% accurate by the way.....

Thanks for you welcome notes. Have tried the sites that Redleg sent but no joy. I know they were Telemark Batalion but the insinia was Black with a kind of shield in white and the ship was white. All the lads on the video seemed to have them. What does Telemark mean?
Cheers Wendy

Thanks. Found it. Looks quite a big area. Mt G.G.G.G.Grandfather came from Kopervik on the coast. Have been trying to find my way round this site and came across profiles. Seems I have changed into a male! How do I remedy this slight mistake? Apart from my first smilie how do I put them on replies etc.
