Anders Olsen - soldat (soldier)?

Hi How do I find about military records. I would like to know what type of soldier /years served my 3 x great grandad Anders Olsen was, born 1789 Raade, died ??. When he married Hellene Jensdatter( born 1793 died ??)on 8th Feb 1819 it shows in the Raade parish records (no 65) that he was ?? soldat. There is a word before soldat which no one has managed to read yet.
