THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE SHOULD HAVE NEVER EVEN HAPPENED THERE WAS ABOUT 80 THOUSAND AMERICAN DEAD BECAUSE IKE HELD PATTON BACK WHAT PRICK OF HISTORY THEY SHOULD DO WHAT THEY DID TO STALIN TAKE HIS GRAVE OUT OF RUSSIAN SOIL AMERICANS SHOULD ALSO DO THE SAME TO IKE
Ike was an asshole to Patton That bastard held back Patton 4 times so that Monty the fool could get there INSANE that surely cost American lives God send to the Germans all Patton could do is shake his head saying "this is wrong" totally against everything he belived in how to fight a war FACT Thank God for Patton an incredible warrior. He liberated 88 million square miles of land.He saw the WW2 Ardennes Offensive, when nobody else did. In which he was able to get his army there to help the
@Kilooscarromeo 101st AirBourne which were hanging on by their finger nails.in doing that, that key area was in Allied hands & didn't fall into the Germans. BUT IKE HELD HIM UP BEFORE THAT & HE HAD THE GERMANS AT THE BORDER OF FRANCE & GERMANY(STANDING GERMANS WHICH HE COULD OF ANNIHILATED) BECAUSE OF THE WAIT THEY SLIPPED INTO GERMANY ALLOWING THEM TO REORAGNIZE & THERE YOU HAVE THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE.That would have definately ended the war sooner saving a lot of American lives FACT.
@Kilooscarromeo if he had to listen to monty the war would have been over sooner but dumb yanks chose to advance on a broad front rather than montys plan for a stong blitzkrieg style attack at the week points witch the germans ending up useing at the bulge and would have succeded if not for allied air power
@Kilooscarromeo monty planed d day u moron he lead the charge all the way till ike seen the germans were done then had him replaced by him self and stole the glory and for patton he was a dud general ike new that at least god u yanks are dumb yous couldent plan a hen night never mind an invasion read something other than yank history for gods sake
@fatben5 sorry to hear that m8 my grandad fought in ww1 in the black watch then in the black and tans in irland then the royal navy in ww2 never new him died of cancer in the 70s
i remember my grandad telling me stories of being in the boat on d day and i couldnt imagine what he felt like until you see footage like this, these men are heros and very brave,even though they were physically being sick and soiling themselves brings me out in goosebumps just thinkinh of it...
hell, my grand dad on my mothers side of the family was in the whermacht and was at omaha and he told me about the invasion,and ironicley my fathers dad was on the american side, you should see the arguments they have sometimes
remember alots of people from Norway escaped to canada. And in canada they did not have vacation no they started the norway training camps in canada. They trained pilots and also ground forces and att the end of war on d-day they went on that beach whit airsupport...
Norway had spitfires support whit the british royal norweagian airforce..They shot down over 200 germans planes on d-day they also supported the americans troops takeing out germans groundforces...So basically Norway did a part too whit the british and americans on d-day....

Whether or not the U.S military should be in Iraq, they're fighting for their country over there, so, all due respect, who the fuck are you to badmouth them?
They're not fighting for American, and in fact their presence in Iraq does more harm to America than not. But the soldiers aren't to blame, they're just doing they're job and they deserve respect. It's just unfortunate they are being used and thrown away needlessly.
How am I bad mouthing the American military? I have nothing but the utmost respect for the military, especially during WW2. I am actually somewhat of a WW2 buff. You're making the fundamental mistake of thinking that when people criticize a "war" like Iraq that it somehow is a criticism of the troops. It isn't. I respect every one of them, it isn't their fault, they're doing their job. You can hate a war but still respect the troops fighting it, regardless of the war's merit or purpose.
Slanty, the US lied to the Security Council about Iraq and that invasion was illegal. Any other country would have faced sanctions & boycotts. As for supporting soldiers fighting an illegitimate war does that mean we should hate WWII Germany & Hitler, but support what their troops did? This video at least is about real heroes, not men like sheep.RIP

Britain has 60 million poeple ya. Soldiers that are freezing too much on their knees in warfare and makeing ass holes in snow for evry 10 meters they are falling in skiing and want home to mommy...What soldiers are that?.
you guys why dont you step back and look at what you are saying..they fot our freedom!!freedom to live!!it was not about which country did what,it was humans against tyranny!!hail the soldiers who died for me!!hail the soldiers who died for you!have you evr felt what is to know that the whole worldz fate is in ur hands!??tehy did!!thats why they all fot the WORLD WAR togtehr!!Not as a countries but as brothers and sisters of the same family!!
it dont matter hu did wat, n wat not, the whole point is dat the whole fuckin world is at war. much props for all the brave men n women who individually played a vital role to put an end to this madness. god bless the fallen soldiers n those hu are still here. my respects to them.. peace!
mate your talking a load of bollocks russsia didnt win ww2 it was a combined effort. the only reason germany lost was because hitler was fighting on two fronts. how daare you claim that russia won the war!!! your basically saying that british and american and australian lives were lost for nothing. go and read your history books little boy.
I hate to say anything nice about the USSR which was not much different from Nazi Germany, but the fact is that they ´would have won the Nazis even without the Western front.
But if not for Normandy, the Soviets would have marched to Paris as well.
Therefore Normandy; and Italy, were all-important for post war Europe - the Western Europe remained democratic.
"they ´would have won the Nazis even without the Western front."
Then why was Stalin asking the other Allies to open up another front? People need to remember that they were the ALLIES. They fought together. I'm tired of hearing "Oh, the British sucked," or "No-one needed the Americans."
please don't put words in my mouth I never said. both britain and the USA were BADLY needed as I already said - to save the West Europe democratic.
And true - the Western front in Italy eased the pressure of the USSR in Kursk, the decisive battle of WW2. But the land-lease and to the USSR the Western front started to affect when Germany was already losing.
Therefore, I think the British and the USA saved the West Europe from communism. And Churchill's stubborness gave an example to everyone .
you forget about the nightly bombings of london sir. the nazi party was able to destroy europe...with their concentration solely on russia, they would have been able to last through the winter and win during the spring/summer months. and lets not forget how it was planned that japen join in after america's defeat to conquer the rest of asia/europe.
A couple FACTS for the people posting here. France did have a real and massive army at the outset of ww2, Canada liberated Holland, and dun, dun dun, Russia won WW2. 75% of Germany deaths were at the hands of the russians, they detroyed the Luftwaffe so the Germans had no air support on D-day and were bombed for 11 hours before the landing with little to no defense.
Norway has much better army than britains. Wee got snowscooters and vehicles that gose very very fast forward on snow.. and wee are experts on skiing...I was training whit some britains soldiers in army and they went home cause they was freezing too much..wee where out in 35- in 4 weeks. And your saying britains has the best army?
ya wee are trained to be in hard winter weather stay out in 40 - in 4 mounth att mountains. I dont think the americans can handle that weather and cold that long time.
@sjbonadonna US marine ?. There was many norweagian soldiers also on that beach on D-DAY..I personal know many that was there on the beach..They are 70 know in age..and they say they are glad they survived...
I agree with what you say. But the French definitely deserve a mesntion. Although they may not have directly participated in the fighting on D Day, a lot of the resistance work was crucial . Without the work of the French Underground I am certain D Day wouldn't have been so succesful.
There is no word about soldiers from other countries like New Zealand,FranceBelgiu,Norway or Poland,who also fight and die for liberty.We shouldn't forget about them.

No you did not britain always screamed in radio to norway do that do this. Did you guys damaged also the a bomb project the germans did made? did you? no! wee got orders from britan to do it. Britain did not do anything. Britain crashed a glider plane whit 20 parachute soldiers in mountains in norway and all got killed. What i have respect for. Norway had to do that job whit the a bomb in rjukan norway.
ravingjunkey dude who arranged the fighthig networks? yes Norway did. Britain just stood on the other side whit radios and screamed do that do this to Norway. So dont come here and say wee didnt help britain. The norway royal norweagian airforce helped brtitain alots those days when germany was on the way to take controll over britain. Britain was bombed evry singel day by germany who did help britain yes! Royal norweagian airforce! Best airforce sqvadron under war!
havent it been for norway britain would been under germans control...wee did in 5 long years and wee fighted...thats why wee keeped up the pressure to slow down the germans power...
you know why ravingjunkey? usa and britain didnt get took over by the germans? is cause Norway had to fight on all borders evry corner sabotasje in over 5 years wee also stopped the a bomb project. Norway actually helped britain also not only for us. USA came att last....
best army? well they was over here one year one and these soldiers in 30-40 minues went good. Many could not handle the cold and many could not skiing good.
who do you think traveled over to USA to ask for help yes churchill did. When germany bombed england and england was bombed he went over to USA in a battelship and asked the president of the USA for help, than USA came into war against germany. If not USA had helped britain britain would be lost. The reason also why britain wanted to help norway was because they had to, not for norway. But for that they saw germany in norway would be a huch base germany ould get stronger. Thats why.
search for this (Norwegian resistance Fighters cap.3) on youtube and you will see the germans a bomb project in that building. And how they destroyed it.
Havent norway got ride of that germans a bomb project, britain would be under germans controll today. And that beach omaha would be a nightmare for all of us. 300000 soldiers ya but that would be 100 times more loss of soldiers. So dude you have alots to thank for. Wee did it for britain and for all our friends. Wee also destroyed blucher germans biggest battleship over 5000 soldiers on board.
Thats why britain screamed help to USA. And britain was very weak those days when germany bombed england. Norway was fighting in 2 long mounths and did alots of sabotasje. The germans did suffer over here. And that a bomb project the germans had wee destroyed it. england failed on this. Britain screamed and gaved orders to norway. Destroy it. Wee did, those guys who did that went on skii on 80 miles over mountains whit 20 kg bag on neck under germans gunfire.
and dont say that wee didnt lost people in this war. Wee had to fight mounths buy mounths wee had it damn hard over here. Wee lost alots of people too. And wee also had to get ride of the germans abomb project. Wee did the job england didn`t success on. Normandy was just nothing, wee did lose alots more people than that.
She was the first casualty of the great D-day armada. The other Norwegian ships, like the rest of the invasion fleet, carried out their duties successfully according to the operation orders. In the first wave of merchant ships carrying troops and supplies six were flying Norwegian flags. On the days following the landing, 43 more Norwegian ships helped to bring in more troops and supplies to the advancing Allied troops.
However, shortly before arriving at her position Svenner was hit by a German torpedo. She broke in two and sank rapidly, taking 34 of her crew down with her.
Early in the morning on 6 June 1944, amidst the great armada of ships, were eleven Norwegian naval ships. Two "S" class destroyers, one of them H Nor MS Svenner commissioned three months previously and one "Hunt" class destroyer (the veteran Glaisdale) sailed to obtain their bombardment positions according to the preplanned bombardment programme.
The Norwegian squadrons continued their operations over the channel and into France. Covering American or British bombers on their way to targets on the continent were one of their jobs. Sometimes they were on offensive patrols over France or the channel trying to get the Germans up in the air to fight.
If it wasnt for Norway. That beach has been the americas biggest nightmare. Wee destroyed the germans nuclear bomb. Wee did the job england could not do. England tryed but they failed. If that project hasnt been stopped than i would tell ya dude, this war and that beach has been to a total nightmare and 100 of times more soldiers has lost their lifes. PUSSYS? wee lost only 2 pilots in that scvadron. england lost 100! and wee shot down 15 germans planes did 14 damages and became best scvadron
The Norwegian squadrons lost 2 pilots during the Dieppe raid. 3 others were taken prisoners by the Germans. In return they shot down 15 enemy aircraft, 3 probables and 14 damaged. The best score of all RAF squadrons that day. Did you know how many the british scvadrons lost? and the americans? MANY! wee lost only 2 pilots..and wee had the best scvadron!
only 2? isnt that also heros? you all americans think only about your self ones...There was also france soldiers on this beach polish norweagians british..canadians..all are heros not only the americans.
No the norweagian airforce covered the american bombers also did aircover over the beaches there. They shoot down over 15 germans aircraft and they helped also the british scvadrons cause they did suffer alots. There was also 10 norweagian ships + 1000 norweagian soldiers there. Just read more online and you will find the information.
The Norwegian squadrons lost 2 pilots during the Dieppe raid. 3 others were taken prisoners by the Germans. In return they shot down 15 enemy aircraft, 3 probables and 14 damaged. The best score of all RAF squadrons that day.
The Norwegian squadrons were up in the air several times a day during the ill-fated Dieppe raid by led by Canadian forces. Led by Scott-Maldon they got stuck in with the Germans at several occasions.
The Norwegian squadrons continued their operations over the channel and into France. Covering American or British bombers on their way to targets on the continent were one of their jobs.
When the fighting was over, 8 German planes were shot down, another probably shot down with another nine damaged. One Norwegian lost his life. Kjell Sandvig.
-Tally Ho, Tally Ho! Fifteen Me109 and FW190 six o' clock low, going down! Going down with the sun behind them, the two Norwegian squadrons with the British 66th squadron attacks the German formation. The Germans fall down from the sky like leafs from a tree. An over-whelming force of Norwegian and British Spitfires takes the Germans completely by surprise.
D-Day, June 6th 1944Thats why when the allies landed at Normandy they found it so difficult to ... france and norway norweagian royal norweagian airforce whit air support. ...
copied from google search (search word)> (norweagian in normandy)
On June 7, 1940 13 ships, five airplanes and 500 men from the Royal Norwegian Navy followed the King to Great Britain and continued the fight from bases there until the war ended. The number of men was steadily increased as Norwegians living abroad, civilian sailors and men escaping from Norway joined the Navy. Funds from Nortraship were used to buy new ships, airplanes and equipment.
Ten ships and 1000 men from the Royal Norwegian Navy participated in the invasion of Normandie in 1944.
In the weeks following the invasion substantial Free French and Polish forces also participated and there were also contingents from Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, and the Netherlands.[9] Other Allied nations participated by supporting the invasion with naval and air support such as the Royal Australian Air Force [10] , Polish Navy, Polish Air Forces in France and Great Britain and the Royal Norwegian Navy[11].
Allied land forces that saw combat in Normandy on June 6th came from Canada, Free French commandos, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America.
the reason why you never have heard or mentioned of Norway what thesy did is cause the american is only so damn proud of them self and never teach to students what other countryes did in world war 2. The most and most biggest important thing in world war 2 was to get destroyed that atomic german project, that was the most important thing i the whole war. If wee didn`t success on that there would be no victory. England did not much to destroy that atomic project. Norway did it...
If Norway didn`t get ride of that nuclear bomb the germans made there would be no victory att this beach.....So if your saying Norway did shit on this d-day here would be ten times bigger loss of american soldiers on the omaha beach that day. Norweagian soldiers went on skii 80 miles whit a bag on 20 kg on their neck on skii over huch big mountains in 50 - deagrees to destroy that german atomic bomb project. also wee sank the biggest german destroyer blucher 5 o clock in the morning.
search for this on google and click the first link whe you come into the page click than photo gallery and you see the norweagian flag att the end there whit the british american and canadian and those other ones....
They bombed on that beach....also had airsupport and did also airdrops of this soldiers...there is 1000 of information about this online here. If you also go and buy books about it you will find it in store..
Cause thousands of norweagian people escaped to canada and there they started training of soldiers. pilots and soldiers those that where trained for pilots went into the norweagian royal airforce and joined also into d-day whit airsupport..
It should be remembered that the Spitfires tackled the German fighters while the Hurricanes took care of the bombers.
Now serving in all parts and under all conditions, the Spitfire will be found wherever there is trouble in the sky. A recent addition is the Seafire, adapted for the Fleet Air Arm and flown from aircraft carriers.
The only regrettable fact in the "Spit's" history is that its inspired designer could not live to see the result of his work on the whole course of the war.
Spitfire Vb serial EN830 / NX-X fell into German hands late in 1942. It crash landed on November 18th 1942 while being flown by P/O (Sous Lt.) Bernard Scheidhauer of the Free French Air Force, attached to 131 "County of Kent" Sqn. RAF. He and his No.1, P/O Henri de Bordas, had been on a "rhubarb" to Normandy during the afternoon. EN830 was hit by light flak and made a forced landing in a turnip field at Dielament Manor, Trinity, Jersey.
been reading about this 100 times go an read the history more. First they had on d-day was planes to take out most airdefence before they started the invasion. Norweagian royal airforce was one of them whit airsupport. And also spitfires where the germans planes..
Little Norway was a training facility operated by the Royal Norwegian Air Force, first at the Island Airport at Toronto and later in the war in Muskoka.
Although most of Europe was occupied by Germany by 1941, many individuals escaped and served in national formations organized in Britain.
Soldiers, sailors and airmen from Norway, Holland, and other countries were sent to Canada for training and in some cases, served in units attached to the Canadian Army after the invasion of Europe began.
Only a small fighting force? They started training soldiers in canada from people that escaped to canada when Norway got occupied. Many thousand people escaped to canada that time and they started a army camp for training soldiers
Thats bullshit you all saying that Norway was not involved on this beach. Royal norweagian airforce was there shoot down over 250 german spitfires also there was soldiers from Norway whit the canadians. Just read more the history and you will see. Its sad that the americans just learn about their self in this history..
250 German "spitfires" shot down? And you have the effrontery to talk about reading a little history LOL
History lesson #1: The Germans didn't fly spitfires
History lesson #2: No German fighters were shot down on D-Day. Why? Because they were all in the Soviet Union were the real fighting was taking place. D-Day was a mere diversion and didn't make a blind bit of difference to the outcome of the war.
small group? wee shoot down over 250 germans spitfires and that was the royal norweagian airforce+ did airsupport whit bombing. Remeber also that many of the norweagian people escaped to canada and went into millitary training in canada and ended up on the beach omaha in normandie whit the canadians.
The day that changed the world?? WTF?? since when?? USA fought 15% of German Army (some 12-year-old Hitlerjugend) on the Western front while the Red Army eliminated 85% of the German Army in 4 bloody years!! Costing lifes of 10 million soldiers and 17 million non-armed civilians!! The Red Army won the WWII!!
kewose They are all heros? What about Norway wee was sinking blucher, the germans biggest war boat, wee where got ride of the germans A bomb. Wee fought like hell over here. And you say you guys did it all? thats Crap!
My granmother she had over 200 prisioners polish and russian and checkians att her farm. The germans too over her house and builded camps all around her. The prisioners used to escape att night to my granmothers garden and to her window. She gave them bread and potetos it was risky but she took all risk.
Here in Norway was a big network of radio communication, it was not legal but evryone took the risk. There was radios att mountain cabins and big communication network friendship whit england. But england helped Norway alots but it was hard times, wee bouth had to fight.
Your saying norweagian soldiers is like the pakistani army? ya know something when i was in the army and it was NATO training over here in the mountains. The American could not skiing much 85% of them where sitting and eated burgers in the tent in 40- cold weather and many could not handle that cold weather. The Norwegians was walking 15 miles whit skiing and a heavy 20 kg bag on the neck. You ever done that?
What you dont know is that many many norweagian people escaped to canada also and started millitary training and than went whit the canadian into normandy on d-day. I readed that only here yesterday and i have also the url if you want it, its from the arcive.
the norweigian underground fought through the war ,gathering information,about the tirpitz,etc plus the raid on the heavy water plant couldnt of been carried out without norweagian underground troops, they all played their part against the nazis

If it was wrong dude, why dose it stand in the books and also in the history than? the royal norweagian airforce had airsupport there and also airdrop of norweagian soldiers and also others may be you have not readed that in the books but i have att 7 years on school
Twelve Allied nations provided fighting units that participated in the invasion, including Australia, Canada, Belgium, France, Czechoslovakia, Greece, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Why dose it says fighting units then? Fighting units means soldiers dude.
Normandy on D-Day itself came from Canada, In the weeks following the invasion substantial Free French and Polish forces also participated and there were also contingents from Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, and the Netherlands.[9] Other Allied nations participated by supporting the invasion with naval and air support such as the Royal Australian Air Force [10] and the Royal Norwegian Navy[11].
What they propably don't tell to children in US is that 85% of german losses came from eastern front in brutal battles between German Wehrmacht and Sovjet Red Army.
Even in Finnish-Russo Winter War (105 days in 1939-40) there were twice as many casualties than in the same period of three first monts of Normandie.

The reason you watch that video is that the video is made only for USA only. Its so stupid that you guys never learn att school who really was on that beach. If you go and search you will see Norway and many others was on that beach. If Norway was not on that beach? why the fuck dose our flag waveing on omaha beach than? Go and read!

Whether or not the U.S military should be in Iraq, they're fighting for their country over there, so, all due respect, who the fuck are you to badmouth them?
czj617 3 years ago
They're not fighting for American, and in fact their presence in Iraq does more harm to America than not. But the soldiers aren't to blame, they're just doing they're job and they deserve respect. It's just unfortunate they are being used and thrown away needlessly.

Slanty and Ivansharpe, I would like to say that you two are the most arrogant people on youtube, Don't badmouth the U.S military, just fuck off.
wefightbears90 3 years ago
How am I bad mouthing the American military? I have nothing but the utmost respect for the military, especially during WW2. I am actually somewhat of a WW2 buff. You're making the fundamental mistake of thinking that when people criticize a "war" like Iraq that it somehow is a criticism of the troops. It isn't. I respect every one of them, it isn't their fault, they're doing their job. You can hate a war but still respect the troops fighting it, regardless of the war's merit or purpose.
slantythecamel 3 years ago
Slanty, the US lied to the Security Council about Iraq and that invasion was illegal. Any other country would have faced sanctions & boycotts. As for supporting soldiers fighting an illegitimate war does that mean we should hate WWII Germany & Hitler, but support what their troops did? This video at least is about real heroes, not men like sheep.RIP

I hate to say anything nice about the USSR which was not much different from Nazi Germany, but the fact is that they ´would have won the Nazis even without the Western front.
But if not for Normandy, the Soviets would have marched to Paris as well.
Therefore Normandy; and Italy, were all-important for post war Europe - the Western Europe remained democratic.
eppurs1muove 3 years ago
"they ´would have won the Nazis even without the Western front."
Then why was Stalin asking the other Allies to open up another front? People need to remember that they were the ALLIES. They fought together. I'm tired of hearing "Oh, the British sucked," or "No-one needed the Americans."
icE052 3 years ago
please don't put words in my mouth I never said. both britain and the USA were BADLY needed as I already said - to save the West Europe democratic.
And true - the Western front in Italy eased the pressure of the USSR in Kursk, the decisive battle of WW2. But the land-lease and to the USSR the Western front started to affect when Germany was already losing.
Therefore, I think the British and the USA saved the West Europe from communism. And Churchill's stubborness gave an example to everyone .

you forget about the nightly bombings of london sir. the nazi party was able to destroy europe...with their concentration solely on russia, they would have been able to last through the winter and win during the spring/summer months. and lets not forget how it was planned that japen join in after america's defeat to conquer the rest of asia/europe.
ipwntehmagik 3 years ago
A couple FACTS for the people posting here. France did have a real and massive army at the outset of ww2, Canada liberated Holland, and dun, dun dun, Russia won WW2. 75% of Germany deaths were at the hands of the russians, they detroyed the Luftwaffe so the Germans had no air support on D-day and were bombed for 11 hours before the landing with little to no defense.

who do you think traveled over to USA to ask for help yes churchill did. When germany bombed england and england was bombed he went over to USA in a battelship and asked the president of the USA for help, than USA came into war against germany. If not USA had helped britain britain would be lost. The reason also why britain wanted to help norway was because they had to, not for norway. But for that they saw germany in norway would be a huch base germany ould get stronger. Thats why.

Wee did it for britain and for all our friends. Wee also destroyed blucher germans biggest battleship over 5000 soldiers on board.
roadrunner304 3 years ago
Thats why britain screamed help to USA. And britain was very weak those days when germany bombed england. Norway was fighting in 2 long mounths and did alots of sabotasje. The germans did suffer over here. And that a bomb project the germans had wee destroyed it. england failed on this. Britain screamed and gaved orders to norway. Destroy it. Wee did, those guys who did that went on skii on 80 miles over mountains whit 20 kg bag on neck under germans gunfire.

She was the first casualty of the great D-day armada. The other Norwegian ships, like the rest of the invasion fleet, carried out their duties successfully according to the operation orders. In the first wave of merchant ships carrying troops and supplies six were flying Norwegian flags. On the days following the landing, 43 more Norwegian ships helped to bring in more troops and supplies to the advancing Allied troops.

The invasion of Normandie
Early in the morning on 6 June 1944, amidst the great armada of ships, were eleven Norwegian naval ships. Two "S" class destroyers, one of them H Nor MS Svenner commissioned three months previously and one "Hunt" class destroyer (the veteran Glaisdale) sailed to obtain their bombardment positions according to the preplanned bombardment programme.

Towards D-Day
The Norwegian squadrons continued their operations over the channel and into France. Covering American or British bombers on their way to targets on the continent were one of their jobs. Sometimes they were on offensive patrols over France or the channel trying to get the Germans up in the air to fight.

On June 7, 1940 13 ships, five airplanes and 500 men from the Royal Norwegian Navy followed the King to Great Britain and continued the fight from bases there until the war ended. The number of men was steadily increased as Norwegians living abroad, civilian sailors and men escaping from Norway joined the Navy. Funds from Nortraship were used to buy new ships, airplanes and equipment.
Ten ships and 1000 men from the Royal Norwegian Navy participated in the invasion of Normandie in 1944.

It should be remembered that the Spitfires tackled the German fighters while the Hurricanes took care of the bombers.
Now serving in all parts and under all conditions, the Spitfire will be found wherever there is trouble in the sky. A recent addition is the Seafire, adapted for the Fleet Air Arm and flown from aircraft carriers.
The only regrettable fact in the "Spit's" history is that its inspired designer could not live to see the result of his work on the whole course of the war.

History lesson #2: No German fighters were shot down on D-Day. Why? Because they were all in the Soviet Union were the real fighting was taking place. D-Day was a mere diversion and didn't make a blind bit of difference to the outcome of the war.
