This was a great yard sale find for $0.50, original price from Dec 1962 was $0.45.
In this action packed Memoir, Oluf Reed Olsen tells his story from WWII. In April 1940, after Germany took Poland, the media was referring to what was happening as "The Phony War." Then Germany took Denmark and from there Norway. As a 21 year old young man, Oluf and his friend were stunned with what just happened, and anxious to do something to push back against the invaders. This story goes through Oluf and his companions harrowing journey to England, for training and their return home to Norway to finally begin their fight against the German occupation until its end in May 1945.

An old used copy of this was probably the most important tool in making me a reader-- thanks Oluf!

This is my all time favorite book! A chest-thumping first hand account of espionage in Nazi occupied Norway.
