Re: OOB 066 Sweden [WIP]
The photos are from my dad's and possibly my uncles recruit service with I 19, aka Norrbotten Regiment or 19th Infantry Regiment.
(In Sweden a "Regiment" is a traning depot. Back then the 19th organised company and battalion size infantry units for the Norrbotten Brigade a unit meant to meet the Red Advance coming through northern Finland. The Brigade was also known as the 19th Infantry Brigade, later 19th Arctic Brigade, and when I was there in the mid 90s it was known as Mechanized Brigade 19, the brigade was disbanded 2004 but I 19 still exists...)
I figure a photo or two could be used for regular infantry around the 50s, 60s and 70s, should there be a need for some variation. The anti tank piece already has better pictures in the game, IMHO.
I threw them up here only because they have no copyright issues. Use if wanted, or leave them.
