History / Andholmen returns to former Shetland Bus headquarters

The former Shetland Bus vessel Andholmen arrived in Lunna Voe on Friday afternoon as part of the Norwegian World War II liberation celebrations. Lunna House was the headquarters of the Shetland Bus operation between 1941 and 1943, and Andholmen was one of many Norwegian fishing boats operating from there.
