Of the seven children participating in the series, only one of them obtained the service for the first time. And it may not be the one you saw before you.
Split her chin and broke her leg
Singer Emil Solli-Tangen (29) left the show last Saturday. He himself believes that he was the only one who really wanted to be there.
He also wanted to be in the first service at age 18, but an accident six months before the session ended.
– I sat behind the wheel of a bicycle with two other friends. We were on our way home from the party, we were 18 years old and we didn’t think until now. I managed to shove my leg into the oak, and then there was a sudden stop. I landed with my chin on the sidewalk and ripped half the trash, says the 30-year-old man.
Around 20 stitches on the chin and the cast around a broken leg for nine weeks led to a very boring summer for the 18-year-old. In session, however, he was declared unqualified and was told that he would be called six months later. However, it never happened.
– The defense had limited resources at the time, and should not have that many. I searched for several different things, but there was no need. I always regretted not receiving the service the first time, so it was a blessing to be at “Kompani Lauritzen”, he says.
He also applied for admission to the parachute school the year the series was filmed, but was above the Defense’s age requirements.
Unfixable
Former football player Raymond Kvisvik (45) also escaped service to the first team, which he thought was perfectly fine as it was the beginning of his football career.
– In one session we had to complete a form. I told him who was there who had atopic eczema, so he asked me to write four on the skin, says Kvisvik, and continues:
– I remember very well. I was told I was not ready for battle, but I became a military reserve in case I was needed in the war.
However, the phone didn’t come until a couple of decades later, after TV 2.
– I probably had to get a little tight when I was 18 years old. But now I’ve tensed up a bit, he says cheerfully.
Neither the program manager and DJ Abiel Tesfai (31) served in the Armed Forces. Due to an eye injury, he was declared “not able”.
– I really knew I wasn’t going to join the army, but I went to the session hoping to cheat on myself. But I failed the vision test, so they sent me home, he says.
However, he is glad he had another chance, despite smoking as one of the top three.
– Put me on the hind legs
Lasse Jensen (38), better known by the artist name Lazz, is also one of those who escaped initial service 16 years ago. This is because he became a father at the time.
– I thought it was a shame to be called at the time, so I wrote a letter about being allowed to serve closer to Fredrikstad. But I got a letter that said I really should go even further, he says to Dagbladet.
However, he did not find this.
– I sat on my hind legs and said I would take the civil service instead. So I took that to the Veum hospital in Fredrikstad, a psychiatric hospital, he continues, adding that he served as a gardener.
When asked if you regret not being a part of the service for the first time, you are ready to go.
– Of course not. Obviously not, answer.
The artist still thinks he did it right the moment they called him.
“I was pretty well trained then, but I’m not now,” he laughs.
Only with experience
Only Håvard Lilleheie (47) of the men on the show served the first time when he was young.
– It’s been a life since then. He was in much better shape at the time, “says the comedian.
At that time, in 1992, he was the fastest in the 3000 meters, in 2020 he delivered the average tree among the other participants.
However, he believes that the will of the participants of “Kompani Lauritzen” is stronger than when he served, what he believes is because the participants participate voluntarily. He remembers some good times when he was 18, but says he would rather finish.
– I was very familiar with tracking my stuff. I found my own shortcomings when it comes to logistics on my own team. I feel like I’m a little on the doorstep, he laughs.
Dagbladet has been in contact with Øyvind «Vinni» Sauvik’s manager, who says he is not available for comment. Henrik Thodesen, for his part, did not answer Dagbladet’s repeated questions.
