Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Propagandistic photo report of the Norwegian SS students at the "SS School" in Elverum in German-occupied Norway during the summer (probably May-June) of 1941. Students in training at Terningmoen military camp.
  • The Norwegian SS (Norwegian: Norges SS) was a Norwegian branch of the German Schutzstaffel (SS), established on May 21, 1941. It originated from Hirdregiment 7, Oslo’s division of Hirden, forming a guard for Vidkun Quisling, the leader of the Norwegian fascist party, Nasjonal Samling (NS), before and during World War II. Nearly 150 members from Rikshirden joined under Police Minister Jonas Lie's leadership. Members trained in Elverum under German SS officers and received German SS uniforms with Hirden insignia.
After Germany's attack on the Soviet Union in June 1941, 136 members of Norges SS volunteered for the Norwegian Legion, a battalion in the Waffen-SS. On July 21, 1942, the unit was renamed Germanske SS Norge, absorbing remaining members of Norges SS. Heinrich Himmler supported its establishment, which aimed to diminish Quisling's influence.

Norsk bokmål: Propagandistisk reprortasjefoto av elevene ved «SS-skolen» på Elverum folkehøyskole (folkehøgskule) sommeren (trolig mai-juni) 1941 på trening ved Terningmoen leir.
Nesten 150 mann fra Rikshirden ble tatt opp i Norges SS med politiminister Jonas Lie som leder. Medlemmene ble etter edsavleggelsen i Oslo sendt til Elverum, der de fikk opplæring i tre uker under ledelse av tyske SS-offiserer og Ragnar Berg, tidligere løytnant i det norske forsvaret. Hirdmennene fikk ikke norske uniformer, men tyske SS-uniformer med hirdens distinksjoner.
Etter det tyske angrepet på Sovjetunionen fra 22. juni 1941, vervet 136 av medlemmene i Norges SS seg som «frontkjempere» til tjeneste i Den norske legion, en bataljon i Waffen-SS som ble opprettet 1. august 1941 og kjempet mot bolsjevismen og for Finland. 21. juli 1942 ble Germanske SS Norge (GSSN) opprettet, og de gjenværende medlemmene i den Norges SS ble overført dit.
