  1. Somewhat ironically it was the threat of a invasion of Norway in 1944, led by the British 4th Army, that tied up a quarter of a million Germans, many of whom could otherwise have been used in France. But in 1944 the 4th Army did not exist. Except as part of a planned deception to make the Germans think the Allies were going to invade Norway.

  3.  @ringowunderlich2241  Well as it's Norway Winter there was as cold as the Russian Front. Plus the Norwegians did have their own resistance just in case the Germans felt they were missing out. But compared to Russia it was not what you would call a difficult posting.
