My grandfather didn't serve in the swedish army during the war, 'cause he was a farmer, who, 'course, was also a very important job.
However, my grandmothers husband's brother-in-law was a navigator on a B-17 during the war. He ended up in Sweden after his plane got pretty banged up over Berlin. All the instruments were gone....and at least two of his crewmembers was killed. They did an emergency landing on an airfield in Sweden. Thinking they were in Germany, they threw themselves out of the plane and lied down on the landing strip. The chief of the airfield saw this, and said reassuring over the speakers: "Relax boys, you're in Sweden." As you probably realised, they were stuck there until the end of the war, since Sweden was neutral (and no fuzz about that please!
)
