Summary edit

Description

Format: Fotopositiv Dato / Date: Mars 1940 Fotograf / Photographer: Kåre Hernes eller Trygve Gjervan Sted / Place: Vadsø, Finnmark Eier / Owner Institution: Trondheim byarkiv, The Municipal Archives of Trondheim Arkivreferanse / Archive reference: Tor.H42.B53.F3879

Fra Trygve B. Gjervans (1918 - 2004) samling.

Gjervan var vernepliktig og tjenestegjorde ved Infanteriregiment 12 som holdt nøytralitetsvakt ved grensen til Sovjetunionen og Finland i Finnmark i 1940. Da tyskerne invaderte Norge 9. april ble IR 12 sendt sørover, og under general Carl Gustav Fleischer (1883 - 1942) ble de satt inn i det norske motangrepet ved Gratangen nær Narvik, hvor IR 12 led store tap.

Fotograf er ifølge Gjervans notater hovedsakelig Kåre Hernes.

Trygve Gjervans egen tekst til bildet:

Her er dagens post kommet til 4.de kompani, som vi ser av det øverste brevet. De fleste bilder jeg har er tatt av Kåre Hernes her fra Trondheim. Han var meget fotointeressert og startet like etter krigen Fotocentralen her i byen. Dessverre døde han så alt for tidlig.

Som man ser av brevet til Hernes så var det ikke noe feltpostnummer som ble brukt, men klar adresse - kompaniet ligger i Vadsø.
