Germans advance from Oslo

Sunday, April 14, 1940 www.onwar.com

In Norway... The Norwegian forces are fighting a series of delaying actions in the Glomma Valley and around Lake Mjösa against the German forces advancing north from Oslo. There are small British landings at Namsos and Harstad. The British and French are considering a number of possible strategies with the object of freeing Trondheim and Narvik. During the next few days, however, direct assaults on these places will be ruled out. Instead the chosen plan for the Trondheim are will involve a buildup at Namsos and Andalsnes and for Narvik preparations at Harstad.
