Danor Units With UNEF in the Sinai Peninsula

1 March 1957

Early in February the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF), after following up the withdrawing Israeli Army in the Sinai desert, had deployed units over a wide area and stationed forward elements opposite Israeli forces.
A Danor (Danish Norwegian) outpost was established opposite an Israeli check point near Rafah, on the southern edge of the Gaza Strip. This photo, taken at the Danor camp, shows a Danish guard at his post.
