Default Surrey HG Norwegian Contingent

Just sharing some interesting HG Unit Insignia with you guys.
This is an interesting group to a Surrey based Norwegian sub-unit during WWII.
I have included the description text that came with them. I like them because it is a nice, fairly complete group - they may also have been worn with HG shoulder titles etc, but I am not sure which type. They are ex-Grace Gibson and thanks are due to Rod Flood for getting hold of them for me.
I have been trying to locate any other information about them from old copies of the MHS Journal, but so far, no luck. If anyone else has any info, please let me know.
The other pictures are of a sealed pattern card to a printed 'Stretcher Bearer' printed badge along with its 1942 card - including the durability standards if it is washed..... Enjoy.
