Even Brande will share both previously told stories and family stories on how the German occupation of Norway on April 9, 1940 impacted mail delivery and communication during World War 2. During the war, multiple postal systems evolved, both official and unofficial.
The Norwegian postal system provided both legitimate and underground mail delivery. The Germans occupying Norway operated both a military mail system and a government mail system. Even will further talk about the role of the Norwegian resistance movement and the impact they had on the outcome of the war.
The presentation will further explain the roles of a neutral Sweden and the Norwegian exile government in London. If World War II and postal history is something you enjoy, then this is a
presentation you don’t want to miss.
