Presentation of Norway's history and contribution to Western defense and the Atlantic Community.
"Introducing Norway" is part of a series originally designed as "Know your Allies", and finally titled "the Atlantic Community Series".
Its objectives were to familiarize public opinion in each of the member country with the other Alliance members and to emphasize the national contributions to Western culture and political traditions, economic reconstruction and allied defense in the framework of NATO.
The series was produced between 1954 and 1956 and financed by the US government in the context of the Marshall Plan with the cooperation of the Information Service of NATO, and distributed by NATO. The films in the Atlantic Community Series received large non-theatrical distribution and, in some cases, were shown in cinemas and on TV. Language versions were made and distributed with the help of the national governments.
“My country and NATO” tells the story of each one of NATO’s members, using a selection of unique archival materials to take you back in time.

Is that the Kolsås leir that they show as the NATO HQ outside Oslo? If so, it's just down the road from me.

It's kind of funny: To Nordic seafarers, the Gaukstad ship featured early in this clip as the pinnacle of 'Viking' technology is an useless ornament, something that could only be used for prestige in the calm of a sheltered fjord whenever a king needed to boost his ego. A true seafaring vessel was the 'Knörr', the workhorse of the Viking era. The Langskip (the Longship), supposedly a vastly less practical vessel (much along the lines of the Gaukstad ship) was probably more along the lines of a Porsche 911 compared to the Land-Rover the Knörr really was. The ridiculous simplification 1:44 into this video says it all: The Norse did not go straight to America! They inhabited Iceland initially and a hundred years later, a psychopathic killer, exiled from Norway and moving to Iceland (Eiríkr Rauði) managed to get himself exiled from Iceland as well - and he moved to a recently-discovered land he choose to call Greenland (the original con and PR job, he wanted as many Icelanders as possible to follow him. His son Leifr (Leifr Eiríksson, later called 'The Lucky') eventually found North America. They made a go of trying to colonize this great country but failed miserably. I have heard a theory of how that came about: Inviting the locals (called Skrælingjar) to a feast, the Northmen naturally included dairy products on the menu (milk, skyr, cheese etc.). The natives, being seriously lactose intolerant, believed the visitor were trying to poison them and, as a result, the proverbial shit hit the proverbial fan. No peace after that, and the Northmen simply had to sod off! There is a standing joke in Iceland: A drunk Icelander at a bar, boasting to an American, "We were the first to find America - but then we lost it again..."
