Summary edit

Description
English: Photo taken at the Lofoten War Memorial Museum (Norwegian: Lofoten Krigsminnemuseum) in Svolvær, Norway's largest exhibition of uniforms and smaller items related to the Second World War and the German occupation of Norway 1940 – 1945:
  • World War II Polish Army uniform:
    • French Adrian steel helmet model 1926 with the military version of the Polish Eagle as cap badge.
    • Following the Russo-Polish war in 1921 the army adopted a version of the 1916 French Adrian helmet with the Polish Eagle badge in the front painted khaki green. This was superseded by the bowl type helmet for the infantry in 1935. The Adrian helmet was still in use amongst the cavalry, some artillery and National Guard units. The chinstrap was brown leather.
