Summary edit

Description
English: Photo taken at the Royal Norwegian Navy Museum (Norwegian: Marinemuseet) in Horten:
  • Display mannequin wearing an naval officer's uniform for the Royal Norwegian Navy (Norwegian: Den Kongelige Norske Marine) from World War II, with binoculars hanging around the neck. The peaked cap has a badge with an embroidered, crowned, and wreathed anchor symbol as the main emblem and golden embroidered leaf decorations ("scrambled eggs" on its visor, introduced as a distinction for staff officers from 1942.

Marinemuseet is one of the world's oldest naval museums. The navy museum was founded in 1853 and has been in the old magazine on Karljohansvern since 1864. The "old department" is somewhat retained, but the museum has later grown to more than 2.000 sqm, rich in information and close proximity to the many models and objects.
