Swedish Customs CBRN Officer

Description

Modern Service — Protective Operations

A container arrives at a Swedish port and nobody yet knows what is inside it. Almost always the answer is routine. Occasionally it is not, and then the people who find out are customs officers working in full protective equipment — slowly, deliberately, in one of the few jobs where hurrying is the greater danger.

This figure depicts a Swedish customs officer in CBRN protection: hooded suit, full-face respirator, heavy gloves and boots, Tullverket insignia at shoulder and chest. Not a historical subject but a current one — the quiet, unglamorous end of border security, rarely photographed and almost never modelled.
