This is a custom card being designed for my Strike North Campaign Scenario which I will be GMing during the upcoming MaizeCon in Waterloo, IA happening in October 2018. There are plenty of card designs already out there by such esteemed individuals as Sharpe, Thor711 and ObstbfEgon. I'm using them as starting points for my own versions. Some have been left entirely intact and others I have modified to my own purposes.
Looking for feedback. What do you think? Is it balanced in terms of cost? Any concerns or questions?
Once I have enough comments / feedback giving approval I will produce the unit card and post it here.

Stubborn Defense - Adjacent Norwegian Soldiers may reroll any cover rolls once. (Updated 3/19/18)
The rank of Sergeant was essentially abolished in 1933. In any year there were only 35 Sergeants in the entire service. After a year of training they were either placed in reserve or offered Officer Candidate School.
The Stubborn Defense special ability's text has been altered from: "Adjacent Norwegian Soldiers may reroll all cover rolls." to "Adjacent Norwegian Soldiers may reroll any cover rolls once." The idea is to make clear that a unit performing a cover roll may only re-roll once and not continuously until a good result is achieved.

Is this re-roll once per turn, occurrence, or game?

If a Norwegian soldier is adjacent to this unit then every time it has to make a cover roll it can reroll once. That's every cover roll. But only one reroll. You don't get to keep rerolling until you get a good result.
