Notes
Content: Picture caption: "Überall streckten in diesen Tagen norwegische Truppenabteilungen die Waffen und wurden als Gefangene abtransportiert. Sie hatten eingesehen, daß der Kampf für sie sinnlos geworden war."
Content: Title translates German picture caption
Content: German propaganda portrayed the occupation of Norway as relatively peaceful, with the only resistance being mounted by soldiers who had been duped into fighting by the British.
