Norwegian Army High Command

The Norwegian Army Command Germany (Norwegian: Tysklandskommandoen) was in charge of the Norwegian contribution to the occupation of the British Zone in Germany, which with the creation of NATO also become a defence force. It was active from the fall of 1946 to the summer of 1953 and represented the Norwegian Army High Command with regards to both the Independent Norwegian Brigade Group in Germany and the British Army of the Rhine. With changing brigades every 6 months the command represented the continuity in the Norwegian presence in Germany.
