Markings and Emblems

Being essential for all armored vehicles, marking and unit emblems were often used it both a logistical and a more personal reason. Norway was no exception, they had a very simple but effective marking method.

Due to there being no designated tank divisions in the start of World War 2, Norway decided to go for a simple numerical digit with the either the lowest or highest number being the commanding vehicle.



Technical / Official markings
Technical markings would be kept to a minimum on Norwegian tanks, with only a simple number for quick identification for the commander which has either the lowest being 00 or any other variant of this.



Also on the tanks rear would be a production marking, this would be for non combat inspections or whenever a specific tank needs to be databased.

Personal / Unique markings
Personal markings were also a big part of the tank markings, here the tank commander would request permission to add a custom logo/marking or other to add character to each tank. Some tanks had alot of inspitation from Norse mythology with some of the gods being on the tanks. Some also used runes to name their tanks.
