Pictures from Oslo Reunion

This photo was taken at the party after the launch of the book. on the right is Commander Bill Ludvigsen, it was he who took over the organisation of the reunion after the sudden death of the association foreman Hakon Lunde. We owe Bill a great debt of gratitude for the great job that he did at such short notice. once he took over we should hav realised that it was going to be a great success after the way that he had organised our visit to Nornandy in 2005. The gentleman in the middle is ny very good friend Kjell Ajhem the photographer, most of the photos in this blog. He has taken photos of us at the reunions for many years and an excellent professional photographer he is. On the left is myself.
This is a photo taken after the dinner given by Admiral Finsett for the MKVF Veterans. On the right we have Sverrre Syversen wit his daughter, who now live inAberdeen. The very smart gentleman in his dress uniform is of corse Commander Bill Ludvigsen, with myself onthe left.
