Takk til Storbritannia
enig
Jeg skulle ønske vi kunne ha gjort mer for å hjelpe. Det er en stor skam, jeg tror Norge kunne vunnet hvis vi ikke trakk oss tilbake til Storbritannia.
What is the name of the series
Again, the name is in both the title and description of the video.
Alliert og alene = allied and alone
Molotov cocktail, did they now about it?
Petrol bombs were used by Norwegian forces during the campaign. The British forces used Boys AT rifles and Hotchkiss AT guns to knock out armor at longer distances. The Germans had several tank losses during the battle of Kvam shown in the last half of this clip.
Molotovs as we know them have been invented by the Fins when the Soviet tried to invade them. So probably they havent heard of that idea yet

Several volunteers who had already participated in the Winter War also had a fighting role in the invasion of Norway. Improvised petrol bombs, anti-tank mines and satchel charges were some of the weapons used by the Norwegians against German armor. These "ideas" were most likely brought over by the veterans who had already fought against Soviet armor.
@@freddym99 The Winter War happened before this.
The Molotov Cocktail was yet used during the WW 1. Who said bunkers or tanks said Molotov cocktails. But it was only a fire one (from the middle âge). The real one is chemical.
On 23th august 1944, Professor Pierre CURIE (son of Maria CURIE) created one exploding only in contact of air.
