Milo B

Milo B (Bergslagens militärområde, Bergslagen Military Area) was a Swedish military area, a command of the Swedish Armed Forces that had operational control over the informal Bergslagen region, for most time of its existence corresponding to the area covered by the counties of Värmland, Örebro and Kopparberg (now Dalarna County). The headquarters of Milo B were located in Karlstad.

History
Milo B was created in 1966 along with five other military areas as part of a reorganisation of the administrative divisions of the Swedish Armed Forces. It can be seen as the successor of V. militärområdet (V. Military Area) created in 1942, but that did not have the same tasks as Milo B. The military area consisted of the land covered by the above mentioned counties. In 1991, the number of military areas of Sweden was decreased to five, and as a consequence of that, Milo B was merged with Milo Ö to create a new military area, Milo M.
