Commandos Strike at Dawn Page #3

---

... stating that unless we heard that they

were preparing at once to withdraw...

... their troops from Poland, a state

of war would exist between us.

People of Norway, do not be

alarmed because of German troops.

Negotiations are being conducted

with German authorities.

Resistance or disturbance

will only harm the negotiations.

Be assured that our neutrality

will be respected...

...and remember there

must be no resistance.

This is the Norwegian war office...

...speaking for your king

and government.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

All right, children.

All right, children.

There's to be no more resistance.

We've been ordered not

to further resist.

No resistance?

1933:
No resistance.

1936:
No resistance.

1939:
No resistance.

Now, 1940, the Germans

are marching through Norway...

...and still we hear "no resistance."

- Those are my orders.

- We can't do this.

The Germans are coming,

we must do something.

Erik, friend, you're a sensible man.

You're an educated man.

Tell him.

- The captain has his orders.

- They came over the radio.

They came over the radio.

After all, it's his business.

He's an officer.

He knows more about

how a war is to be conducted.

We civilians, it's not exactly our line.

Then we civilians

must make it our line.

People of Norway, greetings.

The people of Germany shake

the hand of their Nordic brothers.

We are driving the English invaders

from your shores and guarantee...

...that never again will any English foot

be set upon Norwegian soil.

We are making a New World Order

and there is a great place in it...

...for our friends and brothers,

the Norwegians.

Everything is to go on

exactly as before except that...

...no longer do you have

to live in fear of the English octopus.

The Fhrer sends his greetings

to his Norwegian brothers...

...and congratulates them

on their delivery.

All is to go on as before.

Your industries are now in safe hands.

Your culture is protected.

Of course, there'll be

a curfew at 6:
30 every night.

And any Norwegian found

in the streets after that will be shot.

No boats are to leave the harbour

under pain of death.

Any act of disobedience against

the German uniform is punishable...

...by death at my discretion.

- Colonel, the concert.

- Oh, yes.

There will be a concert

by the regimental band...

...here at 2:
30 every Sunday.

That is all.

It is reported that one

of you gentleman...

...holds some interesting views

about our arrival.

Which one of you is Bergesen?

That's my name.

It is considered necessary

that you be held for questioning.

- But why?

- You will come with me now.

Captain...

...just what does "questioning" mean?
