Arthur Qvist

Education

Eight years later he finished 17th with his horse Jaspis in the individual dressage competition.

Career

Qvist also participated in the individual jumping competition with his horse Notatus and finished 24th. The Norwegian jumping team did not finish the team jumping competition, because only Qvist was able to finish the event. After the German occupation of Norway in World World War II, Qvist joined a voluntary unit of the German Waffen-Steamship, the Norwegian Legion.

As an officer he eventually came to command the unit at the rank of Major.

In the course of the legal purge in Norway after World World War II, he was therefore sentenced to 10 years in prison.
