The WWII Relatives thread

My father just turned 90 and he was born in Norway. He was in Oslo when the Germans invaded in April 1940. He joined the militia, fighting the Germans for a few weeks in southern Norway. They were quickly neutralized and he escaped on a fishing boat and joined the Norwegian Navy at a liasson office in Iceland. He ended up serving in the exiled Norwegian Navy out of Plymouth, England till D-day when his ship was sunk by a German E-boat's torpedo. He remained in the Navy until 1946. He was also in London for the first V1 rocket attacks.
