He remained here until retirement in 1980. He held the degree Colonel from 1969.[3]

He chaired the Norwegian Equestrian Federation from 1976 to 1982, Dyrenes Beskyttelse from 1982 to 1986 and was a vice president in Norges Dyrebeskyttelsesforbund from 1984 to 1988. He was also involved in the Norwegian Red Cross and Rotary, and was a member of Stange municipal council from 1972 to 1983.[1] He was chosen as leader of the local Conservative Party branch in 1993.[4]
