Memorial Shetland Bus

This memorial commemorates the "Shetland Bus".

The "Shetland Bus" was the nickname of a clandestine special operations group which made a permanent Allied link between Shetland, Scotland and Norway from 1941 to the end of World War II. From 1942 on, the official name of the group was "Norwegian Naval Independent Unit" (NNIU). In October 1943 it became an official part of the Royal Norwegian Navy and was renamed the "Royal Norwegian Naval Special Unit" (RNNSU).
