Re: [WW] Norwegian Weapons



there was one that I read published by bantam I think about a Norwegian
group trained in England and parachuted in to northern norway that blew up
the german heavy water generation plant.  the name of the book escapes me
right now  but it was a really good book and covered a lot of the hardships
they faced trying to cross country ski half way down norway in the middle of
winter.  It is a true story and they evidently did a lot of research and
interviews.
