Norwegian Campaign

The Norwegian Campaign was a successful military action by Germany to occupy Norway. Some allied tried to help fighting. These countries were: The U.K.,  France and and the Polish Armed Forces in the West.
It started on 9 April 1940.

It ended on 10 June, resulting the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany.
