The Shetland Bus Memorial on the seafront at Scalloway, Mainland Shetland. This commemorates the Norwegian seamen who escaped the Nazis occupation and were engaged by the British special services to run a boat service between Shetland and Norway, bringing out refugees and those wishing to enlist with the government in exile, and taking in agents and weapons. With danger from war and the sea, unsurprisingly some were lost and are named on the small memorial.
