I just graduated as a sergeant from the Norwegian Army Signal Battalion (H?rens Befalsskole)! Now I have month off, where my plans consists of enjoying the civilian life, and of course some PR!

That's right. It's near to impossible to be in the Norwegian Armed Forces (Reserves or not) without the one year of conscription. Only exeption (that I know of) would be as a translator, mastering an arabic language and be willing to spend the next 6 months in Afghanistan.

I was in the HVU. But that was just running around with fancy radio chatter.

And you get to use the AG-3

Ahh, no problem, I understand. I'm curious to what other NATO nations use for their signals, and I've already seen some German and U.S. stuff, quite interesting

Hows work as a NCO at the signals though?

Note that the vehicle is owned by the Norwegian army, though the troops are not from Norway
The name of it is BV206.
BV means 'beltevogn', or 'tracked vehicle' in English.
The reason for posting that one is because that is the vehicle they used to get around.

Can't tell you to much about the communication systems though, but I know people that worked on it in the army as I was in the same company as them, so they might be able to tell you some unclassified stuff if you'd like that.
