Books, Manuscripts
In February 1943, the heavy water plant in Vermork/Rjukan, which Hitler needed for the making of the atomic bomb, was made useless by a combined British/Norwegian sabotage operation. There had been an earlier attempt, in 1942, to sabotage the plant. It was known as Operation Freshman. This book describes both these operations.
