War Hero Thwarted Nazi Heavy Water Production

Posted by Hemos on Saturday February 15, 2003 @09:34AM from the destroy-the-methods dept.

Freshly Exhumed writes "Its doubtful you know the name of Einar Skinnarland, but his sabotage over several years repeatedly thwarted Nazi plans to exploit Norway's heavy water production capabilities for their atomic bomb research plans. Skinnerland recently passed away in Canada and his daring exploits are recounted here. Details of some of the raids on the production facilities can be found on pafko and Stephen's Study Room. So many 'what if?'s and suspicions have swirled around the Nazi atomic bomb program that this man's efforts seem crystal clear for a change."

If it were the Nazis, we'd at least have cool uniforms.
