The Combat Engineer Battalion (Norwegian: Ingeniørbataljonen) is a combat support unit of the Norwegian Army. The battalion is mostly based at camp Skjold in Troms county in Northern Norway; two of the companies are stationed at Rena garrison.
History
The Combat Engeneer Battalion was established as a support unit in the former brigade, called Brigaden i Nord-Norge (Brig N). In its current form, it first became a separate full-scale operational battalion in 1987, when the NBC platoon in Troms Landforsvar (TLF) and the mechanical platoon in Hålogaland Engineer Battalion were merged with the brigade's Combat Engineer Company. The Combat Engineer Company was established at the same time as the Brigade Nord, in 1953.
