According to this article my gg-grandfather Markus Anderson Dyrdal who was in born 1790, died in 1855 and lived his entire life on the Dyrdal farm in Hoyanger, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway was a soldier from 1807 - 1814 and fought in the Norwegian - Swedish War of 1814. If my dictionary Norwegian is correct he killed a Swedish soldier with a bayonet which later was placed in the Sogn Folk Museum.
