1. In accounts of British troop landings in Norway the word Gallipoli has been recalled repeatedly. Explain.
Ouch.
Lol. Ouch is right. I agree that it is a definite possibility that Lord Haw Haw hit on something there. As we progress in this war I have a few more examples that I don’t think the press hit on (we’ll see) FDR, Marshall, King, and Ike will all voice concerns of Churchill trying to avenge Gallipoli with his obsession with hitting the “soft underbelly of Europe” beginning with taking control of Africa and then moving into Italy. While I agree with this assessment to a degree at least when it directly pertains to Churchill, I think there is more to the resistance to the cross channel invasion than just that that I wont get into now.
