Gaza 195703. The Ola boys meet excited Arabs, try out as camel riders - and count the days of the journey home. - UN soldiers, including from Norway and Denmark, in place in Gaza in connection with tense relationships between Egypt and Israel. The UN force has plans to block the troubled demarcation line with barbed wire and mines, and also put out records and patrols. The Danish-Norwegian battalion is responsible for 18 km of line. Picture: Norwegians at Camel. The Norwegian army, the ski soldiers for everyone else, has created camel patrols! In the border area that Huitfeldt's company monitors, it is only desert and not navigable for means of transport other than the camel. Temporary marking of the demarcation line. Here, fence posts are transported by Norwegian soldiers on camel. Photo: Sverre A. Børretzen / Aktuell ( Aktuell No. 13/1957 "Ski runners on the camel ridge")
