Milo N (Swedish: Norra militärområdet, Northern Military Area) was a Swedish military area, a command of the Swedish Armed Forces that had operational control over Northern Sweden, for most time of its existence corresponding to the area covered by the counties of Västernorrland, Jämtland, Västerbotten and Norrbotten. The headquarters of Milo N were located in Boden.
History
Milo N was created in 1993 when the number of military areas of Sweden was decreased to three, and as a consequence of that, Milo ÖN was merged with Milo NN, except Gävleborg County, to create this new military area. In 2000, these last three military areas were disbanded and the command for the whole of Sweden was placed at the Armed Forces headquarters.
