Overview:
The capture of King Haakon of Norway-like the German capture of King Christen of Denmark earlier in the day- would be a coup of the first order, and perhaps crucial for later military operations and occupation in the region. However, things did not go well for the Germans in Oslo. Despite problems elsewhere, German parachute troops and transport planes loaded with infantry did land at Fornebu some three hours earlier than planned. But the Norwegian government had been alerted by the Oscarsburg torpedoes that sank the Blücher, and this German disaster had given them a reprive of several hours. Aware that the King was fleeing north, Captain Eberhard Spiller, air attaché to the German legation in the capital, rushed to Fornebu airport to commandeer two companies of paratroopers. Loading them abord buses, he hoped to raid the Norwegian army headquarters at Hamar and capture King Haakon.Attacker: German (Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 1, Flieger-Division 7)
Defender: Norwegian (Ad-hoc Command of Reservists and Citizen Volunteers)
