Artwork from Narvik 1940, illustrated by Ramiro Bujeiro

At Moan, the Norwegian 2nd Platoon, 2nd Company, Trønder Battalion commanded by Lieutenant Helge Brinchmann, had dug snow pits, and he had posted guards. At 0430hrs, they reported movement at the boarding school 400–500m away. Brinchmann raised the alarm. He sent a warning to the company commander and 1st Platoon stationed 100m from his position. No enemy could be seen because of the darkness. Then at 0500hrs mortar bombs started to land on the camp. Machine-gun fire from two directions made his platoon's snow positions untenable and he sent them to some buildings. They were soon crowded out and Brinchmann told a section to sprint to the rest of the company positions. Some were hit and wounded. Others had started to leave the buildings without waiting to be ordered to do so. The Germans were slowly getting closer; when they appeared within 20–30m, Brinchmann and some others strapped on skis and with no kit bags on dashed out. The scene depicts Brinchmann and his men as they start to pull back. A machine gunner armed with a Madsen provides covering fire, as the loader prepares a fresh magazine for him. A mortar round has landed near their positions. The other Norwegian infantry are armed with the Krag–Jørgensen 1894 6.5mm rifle. All the Norwegians wear white camouflage smocks. Brinchmann and most of his group got out safely and made it to Fjordbotneidet. 2nd Company lost ten killed, 17 wounded and 67 missing.
