Gary comments on a recent speech by Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker. The governor uses inflammatory rhetoric to disparage (and warn it seems) Republicans about potential reprisals if they continue on their current path. He also refers to those who support President Trump as "quislings" that will not be tolerated.

Hillary Clinton got it right in 2016 when she tried to warn Americans that Donald Trump would be a “Putin puppet” if elected. But perhaps the president has earned an even stronger title: Quisling. We'll talk to our Week In Review panel about that and more. Plus an update on sentencing for a man in an Illinois parade shooting who nearly attempted the same mass murder in Wisconsin. And we'll talk about the first round of the NFL Draft in Green Bay. Mornings with Pat Kreitlow airs on several stations across the Civic Media radio network, Monday through Friday from 6-9 am.

Christer Strömholms nazistiska bakgrund blev inte ett problem, utan en fördel. Och han fick hjälp på traven, konstaterar Mårten Arndtzén. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Vårvintern 2020 tog journalisten Lars Weiss kontakt med Sveriges Radio angående en intervju han gjort nästan 30 år tidigare med sin vän, fotografen Christer Strömholm. Samtalet var inspelat på kassettband och kretsade kring tiden före och under Andra världskriget. Att Strömholm varit organiserad nazist under åtminstone en del av den här tiden var inte okänt, men fortfarande höljt i dunkel.Kanske kunde vi använda kassetterna till att bringa lite större klarhet i frågan?Det föll på mig att undersöka det här, men jag kom inte särskilt långt. Jag tog kontakt med författaren och kritikern Lasse Söderberg: en annan gammal vän till Strömholm, som benämnt hans politiska bakgrund i ett par böcker. Men han tyckte att han sagt det han hade att säga. Sedan slog pandemin till på allvar och gjorde det direkt farligt för personer ur Strömholms generation att träffa journalister och andra potentiella smittbärare.Annat kom emellan.Att jag lät det göra det berodde nog på att jag aldrig blev riktigt klar över materialets relevans. Dels för den principiella frågan: Varför ska vi låta konstverk begränsas av vår uppfattning om konstnärens vandel? Vad vore vunnet med att skriva ut mördaren Caravaggio ur måleriets historia? Fascisten Ezra Pound eller den usla morsan Alice Munro ur litteraturens?Men också för att Strömholm hade bjudit Weiss på så väldigt lite av självrannsakan. ”Det var en politisk tid”, säger han alldeles i början av intervjun. ”När man nu sitter med facit i hand är det lätt att se hur det gick men ur 30-talets synpunkt gick Tyskland från en orostid till en annan” fortsätter han. ”Autostradorna byggdes, folk började få arbete och mat för dagen. Det var vad man hörde. Och Mussolini hade ordnat så att tågtiderna stämde i Italien”.Så talar en passiv åskådare, som förstått att hans flyktiga sympatier varit missriktade. Inte den sortens garvade aktivist som avtecknar sig i konstnären och författaren Andreas Gedins bok ”Christer Strömholm och nazismen”, med undertiteln ”Hur en liten sanning döljer en större”.Boken bygger på gedigen arkivforskning men handlar faktiskt mer om lögn än sanning.Om hur Strömholm lyckades göra sin bruna historia till en fördel, med benägen hjälp av betydande delar av förra seklets svenska kulturliv.Bland de allra första finner vi Peter Weiss, judisk krigsflykting och vänsterintellektuell: ”Han har en hemlighet, som han bär på, som gör honom intressant” konstaterar Weiss i ett samtal publicerat i Strömholms allra första fotobok, 1965. Redan 20 år efter Auschwitz befrielse kunde en nazistisk bakgrund alltså göra någon ”intressant”. Och så fortsätter det i senare böcker, under följande decennier. ”Hemligheten” blir en diffus men viktig komponent i mytbildningen kring Den Store Fotografen. Att helt sopa den under mattan är ovanligare men förekommer, främst efter hans död.Hans insatser för den andra sidan framhävs däremot konsekvent, i all litteratur som tar upp Christer Strömholms biografi. Vid en vistelse i södra Frankrike 1938 genomförde han ett par kuriruppdrag åt den republikanska sidan i Spanien, och blev beskjuten vid ett av dem, något han själv senare skulle karaktärisera som något slags moraliskt ”elddop”, som skall ha lett till ett uppvaknande.Men det lät i så fall vänta på sig, för samma år publicerade Strömholm ett resereportage i två delar från den här tiden – i nazistiska Stormfacklan.1940 deltog han i det väpnade motståndet mot den tyska ockupationen av Norge, något som ofta tagits till intäkt för en definitiv omvändelse. Men som Gedin visar hörde Strömholm till den falang av svensk nazism som satte nationalismen framför lojaliteten med Hitlertyskland, och för vilken solidariteten med ett ockuperat broderfolk därför var självklar – oavsett ockupantens ideologiska tillhörighet. Ett femtiotal svenska nazister deltog i striderna på Norges sida, enligt Gedin, medan inte en enda ska ha slagits på ockupationsmaktens sida.Så sent som i november 1945 bistår Strömholm åtminstone en Quisling, kanske flera, i flykten undan den norska rättvisan. Ett halvsekel senare påstår han själv att det rörde sig om ”ganska oskuldsfulla 19–20-åringar”. Men den han bevisligen hjälpte var i själva verket en trettiårig krigsförbrytare, efterlyst för landsförräderi. Han greps men undkom till sist, och kunde börja om i Sydamerika.Varför kom Lasse Weiss till oss med sina kassetter, i början av 2020-talet? Som en del av en dödstädning, kanske. Redan sommaren -21 avled han, i sviterna av lungcancer. Jag föreställer mig att det var någonting som låg och gnagde någonstans, inom journalisten Weiss. För det är ju någonting med sanningen, ändå.När det gäller Strömholm är den ofta svår att klarlägga. Många av spåren har vuxit igen för länge sedan. Vanan att ljuga satte sig av allt att döma redan under polisförhören på 1930- och 40-talen. Och som Lasse Söderberg konstaterar i essäsamlingen Gemensamma nämnare, utgiven ett par år före Strömholms död: ”sitt förflutna har Christer rutinerat och med påtagligt välbehag låtit förbli insvept i legendens skimmer”. Men det är just halvlögnerna och dimridåerna som framträder med störst skärpa hos Gedin. Hur de användes – av Strömholm själv och av andra – för att underbygga hans maskulina konstnärsimage. Inklusive ett par kontraktsmord han påstod sig ha utfört, i Stockholm, men kanske bara hittade på för att göra sig ”intressant”.Det säger såklart någonting om Christer Strömholms personliga karaktär. Men också om det svenska kulturliv som jobbade så länge och så konsekvent på att göra honom precis lagom salongsfähig. Tidningen ETC inte minst, som gjorde Strömholm till en del i ett liberalt vänsterprojekt, på 80-talet, genom att lyfta fram hans bilder av de transsexuella vännerna på Place Blanche. Moderna museet som hakade på, ett par år senare, med en stor retrospektiv.Och kanske inte bara det svenska kulturlivet.Jag bläddrar i ”Porträtt i Paris”, Nationalmuseums utställningskatalog från 2022, full med fina reproduktioner av de porträttfoton Strömholm tog av konstnärer och intellektuella i den franska huvudstaden på de legendomsusade 1950- och 60-talen. Cafélivets och existentialismens gyllene epok.Jag fastnar för bilderna av poeten Paul Andersson, vacker som en ung Adonis inför hotellspegeln 1956 men utmärglad och delvis tandlös fyra år senare. En krampaktig pose påminner mig om ett scenfotografi av Ian Curtis, en annan självförbrännande artist som tog sig bra ut på bild, 20 år senare. Jag hade det som affisch, på dörren till mitt pojkrum.Kanske finns ett släktskap mellan fascistens renhetslängtan och avantgardekonstnärens kompromisslösa radikalism? I så fall borde Christer Strömholm haft sällsynt goda förutsättningar att få korn på det.Ett annat av porträtten i Paris föreställer Le Corbusier, fångad redan 1951. Den store arkitekten och funkisprofeten som placerade sina politiska förhoppningar i samma korg som Strömholm, under kriget. Här står han med ena handen lite krampaktigt nedstucken i fickan på den bylsiga kostymen, i ett misslyckat försök till nonchalans. Han verkar trött och lite nervös. Pannan är rynkad.Bakom honom sträcker en lång, tom korridor ut sig. Och slutar i ogenomträngligt mörker.Mårten Arndtzénkonstkritiker och medarbetare på Sveriges Radios kulturredaktionLitteraturAndreas Gedin: Christer Strömholm och nazismen – hur en liten sanning döljer en större.

Hausten 1945 fekk presten Peder Olsen det upopulære oppdraget med å gje sjelesorg til Noregs mest hata mann. Olsen starta som prest i Hjørundfjord i 1927 og vart seinare sjukehusprest ved Lovisenberg i Oslo. Dagboka til Olsen har vore familiens hemmelegheit i mange år. I 2024 gav barnebarnet, journalist Håkon F. Høydal, ut boka Kruttårnet som fortel om farfarens møter med Quisling. Boka gir eit bilete av Quisling i dei siste vekene, gjennom farfarens dagbok. I eit intervju med Høydal får vi høyre korleis det var å lese denne dagboka fyrste gong.

Amerilago Quisling | Donny T by Lopker

Q U I S L I N G A traitor who helps the enemy. Little Donny T Amerilago Quisling! (Amerilago Quisling!) You say you love your country A patriot you claim to be You conspire with our enemy Amerilago Quisling (Amerilaaaago Quisling!!!) Amerilago Quisling Amerilago Quisling You betray the USA You attack our friends You give our secrets away You're a quisling to the end Amerilago Quisling (Amerilago Quisling) [pre-chorus] You fawn upon the wicked Collaborate in their designs You help them conquer us You amplify their lies

G.K. and Dave define what a quisling is in light of G.K.'s Top Ten List of Quislings to be exiled to  the Island of Turdistan. On a more serious note, they discuss the importance of not only changing those who govern, but also how they govern. The guys want to thank you for your continued support of Mining the Media and wish all of you a Very Merry Christmas (which is G.K.'s birthday BTW). Please be sure to visit our website at www.miningthemedia.com and share with your friends, relatives, associates, and neighbors. 

From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Their recommendations are lightly edited from the audio heard in the player above. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.Authoring and illustrating childhoodArt fan Deborah Bartels of St Paul took a delightful trip The Kerlan, which is one of the premier collections of children's literature, housed in the Elmer L. Anderson Library on the West Bank of the University of Minnesota. Called “Journey to Joy: Rise, Relevance, Representation in Children's Picture Books,” the exhibit is open Monday-Friday 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., with docent-led tours available by appointment each day at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Please note: the Kerlan is closed on weekends and from Dec. 21-Jan 1 for the University's holiday break. Deborah describes. the exhibit: The entrance to the exhibit welcomes viewers with life-sized, colorful cut-outs of joyful children doing cartwheels and reaching for the stars. A wall behind is covered floor-to-ceiling with enlargements of the covers of books that have won the Ezra Jack Keats Award.  Displays invite visitors to see the process behind the published award winner: the submitted manuscript, the sketches that evolve into beautiful artwork and the notes of the authors and illustrators. One of the surprising things I learned was that it is the editor who selects the illustrator for a submitted manuscript and that often the writer and artist never meet! “Journey to Joy” is displayed over four floors of the Anderson Library. A short elevator ride to the third floor brings you to the beginning of the exhibit which succinctly illuminates the history of children's picture books, a history which is not always one to celebrate. The exhibit doesn't dwell long on this exclusionary past; it reveals a lesser-known history of positive efforts to represent the diversity of people and cultures and of the awards which encourage and publish more diverse children's literature.  I have long been aware of Newbery and Caldecott Medals which are well-known prizes in children's literature. I knew little about the Ezra Jack Keats Award, which celebrates books that embrace all ethnic and social groups. The ground floor devotes an entire room to feature three indigenous Minnesota artist illustrators:  Jonathan Thunder, Annette S. Lee and Marlena Myles. — Deborah BartelsHealing artsMartin DeWitt, former director and curator of the Tweed Art Museum in Duluth, recommends making time to see the Twin Ports exhibit “Loaded” by Duluth artists Rob Quisling and Jonathan Thunder. It's showing across the High Bridge at the Kruk Gallery Holden Fine Arts Center, University of Wisconsin-Superior through Dec. 20 and by appointment until Jan. 15, 2025. Martin says: The exhibition is truly a collaboration by Quisling and Thunder, featuring a thoughtful and poignant selection by curator Annie Dugan of each artist's diverse artistry that deals directly with their struggles and recovery from alcohol addiction. The exhibition is a powerful testament, not only to the artists' long-term friendship, but also to their unique and powerful creative expression in a variety of media. A dramatic, monumental acrylic painting on canvas by Thunder, smaller oil paintings and intimate prints and drawings by both artists, and a provocative mixed-media art installation by Quisling, fill the Kruk Gallery with inspiration, forthright honesty and beauty. The notion of “Loaded” takes on new meaning, not only as a celebration of the artists' sobriety but also how passion, friendship and creative expression can offer the potential for healing and resolve in this increasingly challenging world. This is an exhibition not to be missed.— Martin DeWittA note before we go From Art Hounds producer Emily Bright: This is the last Art Hounds for 2024, rounding out our 15th anniversary year. Don't worry, we'll be back in January. But before we take a little holiday break, it's worth taking a moment to appreciate what a distinct joy this show is. This year, Art Hounds featured nearly 130 artists and events, from Worthington to Ely, from Fergus Falls to Winona, plus in venues across the Twin Cities metro area.   Artists regularly tell me that folks turned up at their show because they heard about it on Art Hounds.  And the range of shows is just as wide-reaching: visual arts exhibits and stage performances of all kinds. (And even some off-stage: we had not one but two dance performances on or near bodies of water, because that's how we roll in Minnesota.) There were jazz concerts, community quilt projects, art strolls and cabarets, plus art collections at four different colleges.  This is work that sparks conversation about the biggest topics of our day! Shows that make people feel seen. Art that spreads joy.  Thank you to everyone who's been on Art Hounds this year, for taking time to shine a light on someone else's work.  It's not too soon to let me know about the shows you're looking forward to seeing in 2025. Happy holidays, and we'll see you soon. — Emily Bright

SERIES 3 EPISODE 72: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN: A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Hours after the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee ask the FBI for its report on the Attorney General Matt Gaetz Underage Sex Scandal, an extraordinary Gaetz Sex Diagram leaks. It's the Venmo records of the Venmo payments by Gaetz and others to the women in question, and there are more crossing lines and different routes than the map of the London Subway system. And it underscores anew why the Democrats must never compromise nor collaborate with Trump or Republicans who defend him. To hell with Jared Polis, who decided to suck up to Sideshow Bob Kennedy about vaccines, or Hakeem Jeffries, who declared the nomination of these gangsters like Gaetz and Hegseth as "distractions." Throw punches. Eat faces. Metaphorically drive the metaphorical Trump Train off the metaphorical track as often as possible. And most of all, never become Joe Quisling Scarborough or his wife, Marshal Petain Brzezinski. I can state with some assurance that this time, finally, he has ended his career. Morning shows the world over always see their ratings grow as it gets later (more people are awake). The average growth from 6 AM to 7 AM is around 20% On Monday, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski saw their 7 AM ratings DROP by 17 percent compared to their 6 AM ratings.  On Tuesday, ratings for the WHOLE show were down ANOTHER eleven percent from Monday. Scarborough is now on the path we at MSNBC used to call “A Rita Cosby.” On Monday, the debut Rita Cosby Live and Direct has the highest ratings on the network. On Tuesday, it's down a typical 10 percent from the debut. By Wednesday HALF the audience is gone. On Thursday, it's a re-broadcast of “Rita Cosby Live and Direct.” On Friday it's “What was the name of that show we used to have that Rita Cosby was on?” Joe and Mika are done, and they are going to hit every stair on the way down. And for those of us for the whom the headline is "You somehow BELIEVED Scarborough was being sincere?" we are going to enjoy every thud. B-Block (23:45) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Matt Gaetz gets dunked on about 18-year old laws, JD Vance directs his misogyny against Steve Bannon's woman CFO and has to eat it, and Marjorie Taylor Greene has actually invited a transgendered woman somewhere to meet her - Greene - in the bathroom and beat the crap out of her (Greene). C-Block (34:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Because my schadenfreude diet hasn't started yet let me tell you the whole Joe Scarborough story. This scumbag finally ran out of other people to try to sabotage and instead destroyed himself. In my days before I escaped MSNBC it amazed me he ever got on the air: he spent 90% of his time and 99% of his energy on trying to sabotage Maddow and me and others. And so he goes from "Joey Scars" to "Joe Scared-Bro."    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vidkun Quisling, leder af det nazistisk inspireret parti Nasjonal Samling i Norge, talte til den norske befolkning på dagen for Tysklands invasion den niende april 1940. Quisling opfordrede sine landsmænd til at forholde sig i ro. Han mente, at nordmændenes fremtid lå i et racerent nordisk fællesskab med Hitlers Tyskland. Quisling navn er blevet et internationalt synonym for forræderi, men han var ikke alene om disse tanker. Rundt omkring i det tyskbesatte Europa var der ligeledes lokale nazister, som begyndte at kollaborere med besættelsesmagten. En aktuel norsk spillefilm om Vidkun Quisling er vores anledning til i dagens program at rette blikket mod kollaboratørerne, de som mente, at de var nationens frelsere, men endte foran en henrettelsespeloton. Adam Holm taler med instruktøren bag den biografaktuelle film "Quislings sidste dage" Erik Poppe og ph.d. i historie og lektor ved CBS Joachim Lund. I redaktionen: Nanna Sloth Skardhamar og Clara Faust Spies. Redaktør: Silke Fensman. Musik: Adi Zukanovic.

Initiativet "The Soulfulls" er en NGO for kvinder fra etniske minoriteter, der forsøger at komme ind i de kreative brancher og mangler et netværk at støtte sig til. "The Soulfulls" sætter unge talenter sammen med mere etablerede kvinder i branchen via en mentorordning. Vi har en mentor og mentee i studiet til at fortælle om deres forløb i "The Soulfulls" og om hvorfor sådan en ordning overhovedet er nødvendig. Den norske instruktør Erik Poppe har lavet en film om den nazistisk-indsatte ministerpræsident i Norge under anden verdenskrig, Vidkun Quisling. Quislings navn er blevet synonym med landsforræder, men i filmen forsøger Poppe at komme bagom klichéen og forstå, hvad der drev manden til at gøre det, han gjorde. Vi har instruktøren i studiet. Værter: Chris Pedersen og Tony Scott.

In this conversation, Erik Poppe - the director of “Quisling - The Final Days”, which just premiered at TIFF following the Norwegian Film Festival, discusses his journey from photojournalism to filmmaking, emphasizing the role of art in raising questions and engaging audiences. He reflects on his influences, including Francois Truffaut's 1970 film ‘The Wild Child”, the importance of personal narratives, and the challenges of portraying controversial characters - how creating empathy for these characters can be challenging yet rewarding.Erik also shares his insights on his filmmaking process, the significance of preparation for film festivals, and how art's primary role is to provoke thought and discussion - through simplicity and truthfulness.What Movies Are You Watching?Like, subscribe and follow us on our socials @pastpresentfeature

His name is now a term that means traitor. That's because after two decades of working for the Norwegian government in various roles, he collaborated with Hitler and the Nazi party, welcomed the German occupation of his country.

This month AJ & Andy appraise Michael Chapman's sole contribution to Secret Army: Hymn to Freedom, which explores the political and personal motivations of the Quisling-like Van Reijn as he attempts to leave Occupied Belgium behind.  Andy has issues with Chapman's storytelling style, while AJ has cause to sing a refrain of 'Interchangeable Men'. Elsewhere, a draughts trope irritates Andy, AJ considers how differently they might react to Lisa if a man talked to them like Curtis does, and both of them are thrilled to learn about a filming location used in the episode.  We are joined, as ever, by Ryan, and also by Alex Wilcock whose reading of the episode brings lots of new ideas to light. At the end of the episode we are joined by Sophia Bennett (@sophiabennett on Twitter) who reflects on how Secret Army has affected both her reading and her writing. You can find out about her books here: http://sophiabennett.com/books/  Also you might want to check out Flemish and Wallooon POWs in the Second World War by Jean-Michel Veranneman (as mentioned by AJ): https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Belgium-in-the-Second-World-War-Paperback/p/20249 As ever, thank you for listening and please do share links and promote the podcast wherever you can.

Den norska nazisten Vidkun Quisling (1887-1945) har inte bara gått till historien som den största förrädaren i norsk historia hans efternamn används internationellt med betydelsen förrädare.Vid militärhögskolan tog Vidkun Quisling officersexamen med det högsta resultatet någonsin och han hade sedan en lysande karriär som diplomat och hjälparbetare i Ukraina på 1920-talet. För att senare bli försvarsminister för Bondepartiet åren 1930-33. Hans intresse för rasläror kom att utvecklas till nazism och vid Nazitysklands ockupation av Norge tog han makten statskupp mot tyskarnas vilja.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia vid Umeå universitet.Vidkun Quisling avrättades den 24 oktober 1945 för sitt förräderi mot Norge och gåtan Quisling är ännu olöst. Hur kunde en sådan begåvad människa hamna så moraliskt fel?I slutet av 1920-talet läste han och förvärvade mycket av den raspolitiska uppfattningen av historien från amerikanska, tyska och franska författare. Hösten 1929 presenterade han sig själv i en självbiografi med orden "Jag är av nordisk härkomst".I maj 1933 bildade han nazistpartiet Natsjonal Samling som aldrig fick mer än ett 2,2 procent i allmänna val för att senare splittras 1936. Redan på 1930-talet planerade Quisling att ta makten i en statskupp.Vidkun Quisling träffade Hitler första gången i december 1939 för att samtala om hur Natsjonal Samling skulle kunna komma till makten i Norge. Quisling fick aldrig vetskap om invasionsplanerna av Norge, men när tyskarna anföll Norge i maj 1940 tog han makten genom en statskupp. Eftersom Quisling helt saknade legitimitet i norrmännens ögon tvingade tyskarna honom att träda tillbaka och resa till Tyskland. Först 1 februari 1942 utnämnde tyskarna Quisling till ministerpresident.Lyssna också på Birger Furugård – Deje-HitlerBild: Vidkun Quisling möter nazistledare i Tyskland den 13 februari 1942.

Birger Furugård, även kallad Deje-Hitler, grundade tillsammans med sina bröder Sigurd och Gunnar Sveriges första nazistparti den 12 augusti år 1924. Svenska Nationalsocialistiska Frihetsförbundet (SNFF), som senare bytte senare namn till Svenska Nationalsocialistiska Bonde- och Arbetarpartiet (SNBAP).Birger Furugård blev partiets ledare och kom att träffa både Hitler och Goebbels i Tyskland och brevväxlade flitigt på knackig tyska med Heinrich Himmler. Men Birger Furugårds partiverksamhet kom aldrig att locka särskilt många medlemmar eller röster i val och Birger Furugårds problematiska privatliv gjorde inte saken lättare. Vid en partisplittring 1933 blev Furugårds parti det minsta.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med journalisten och författaren Anna-Lena Lodenius, aktuell med biografin En värmländsk Hitler - Birger Furugård och de första svenska nazisterna.Det första svenska nazistpartiet bildades inte långt efter det tyska NSDP, och Furugårds parti var det första utanför den tyskspråkiga världen. Kontakterna med de tyska nazisterna var täta och omfattande. Även om de tyska observatörerna tvivlade på det svenska nazistiska ledarskapetSvenska nazister hoppades på att även Sverige skulle ockuperas av Nazi-Tyskland precis som Norge och Danmark och såg Furugård som en tänkbar svensk Quisling.Birger Furugård bytte aldrig uppfattning, trots att han hade vänner som avrättades i Tyskland och trots närheten till ett världskrig inpå knutarna i det ockuperade Norge. Inte ens när hans älskade dotter gifte sig med en norsk motståndsman.Bild: Birger Furugård håller tal 1935, Foto: Gunnar Lundh, Nordiska museet, Public DomainMusik: Horst Wessel-sången, wikipedia, Public DomainLyssna också på Ingvar Kamprads fascistiska vän Vill du stödja podden och samtidigt höra ännu mer av Historia Nu?

Max Pearson presents a collection of this week's Witness History episodes from the BBC World Service all about figures branded as traitors.In 1939 Wang Jingwei, once a national hero in China, signed an agreement with Japanese invaders which made his name synonymous with the word ‘Hanjian', a traitor to China. But Pan Chia-sheng's memories of living under Wang Jingwei's government in Nanjing tell a very different story. Our guest Ian Crofton, author of Traitors and Turncoats, explains the nuances involved in our historic understanding of traitors.Also, the fascist Norwegian politician Vidkun Quisling blamed for convincing the German dictator Adolf Hitler to invade Norway in 1940. Norwegian journalist Trude Lorentzen explains the story with an account she recorded from Quisling's Jewish neighbour, Leif Grusd.And, the story of the former Broadway showgirl, known as Axis Sally, who broadcast antisemitic Nazi propaganda on German State Radio during World War Two, told through the archives.Plus, the Polish colonel, Ryszard Kuklinski, code-named 'Jack Strong', who passed Soviet military secrets to the CIA that changed the tide of the Cold War.And, the Hungarian Sándor Szűcs, famous for playing in the country's star football team, who was executed in 1951 for trying to defect from the communist regime.Contributors: Pan Chia-sheng - on Wang Jingwei Ian Crofton - author of Traitors and Turncoats Trude Lorentzen - Norwegian journalist on Vidkun Quisling Aris Papas - one of the agents who received intelligence from Ryszard KuklinskiErzsi Kovács' story is told using an archive interview he gave in 2011 to Hungarian journalist Endre Kadarkai on the Arckép programme, on Zuglo TV.(Photo: Mildred Gillars, known as 'Axis Sally', on trial for treason in 1949.

In December 1939, fascist Norwegian politician Vidkun Quisling travelled to Berlin from Oslo for a secret meeting with Adolf Hitler. Quisling suggested to Hitler that the British were planning to move into Norway for their own strategic needs. Norway hadn't been a concern for the Nazis but the meeting alarmed Hitler and within months Germany started its invasion of Norway. From that moment, Quisling was consigned into history as a traitor. So much so that in the time since, his name has become a byword for traitor in numerous languages. Matt Pintus hears from Norwegian journalist, Trude Lorentzen, who decided to study Quisling's life after stumbling across his suitcase in an online auction. As part of her voyage of discovery, Trude interviewed Quisling's Jewish neighbour Leif Grusd who was forced to flee to Sweden when the Nazis took over Norway. Leif Grusd's interview was translated from the NRK podcast "Quislings koffert" - Quisling's suitcase - released in 2021. It was made by production company Svarttrost for NRK.

You know how some people just seem to have that star quality? Winston Churchill, he was one of those. No matter how many books, documentaries you may have imbibed—or, speaking of imbibed, tales you may have heard of his brandy-infused mornings, there's always an insatiable appetite for more and more Churchill.His wit, his wisdom, and yes, even his lack of a filter in his shock-jock pronouncements—all adds up to a mystique, often a respect, that even the former colonies do not deny. Maybe the respect comes from his sense of personal conviction and his uncompromising dedication as a patriot. And not the least because he is credited with defeating Adolf Hitler.Churchill's desire not to let India go seemingly bordered on obsession. Even when he wasn't steering the ship in India he was always with one eye on the country that made the Empire, well, the empire.Today, to guide me through understanding Churchill and India, I have the privilege of talking to my guest—renowned historian and author, Walter Reid—whose new book, Fighting Retreat, unravels the layers of Churchill's impact on the Indian subcontinent.From Churchill's privileged though unconventional background, through the many accusations against him for being a racist and being cold-hearted, there's also his apparent compassion for the underdog. As an example, his support for the Dalit cause.In 1917, The Montagu Declaration marked a turning point in British ownership of India. The Irwin Declaration of 1929 tried to paper over its deficiencies. And then as one thing led to another in the 30 eventful years between 1917-1947, between Montagu-Chelmsford and independence, Churchill stoutly opposed any countenance of an India independent of the Empire.He once spoke of the three factions—of Hindus, princely states, and Muslims—being the metaphorical "three-legged stool" upon which Britain sat indefinitely.Was this divide and rule? Or was this good administrative strategy?  How did it all pan out? I cannot wait to ask Walter Reid and to delve into the intricate relationship between the icon Winston Churchill and the complex tapestry of India.Buy Fighting Retreat: https://amzn.to/3Rb1mHFABOUT WALTER REIDWalter Reid is a historian educated at the universities of Oxford and Edinburgh, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society, and the author of a number of acclaimed books on British politics and history, including Keeping the Jewel in the Crown: the British Betrayal of India and most recently Neville Chamberlain: The Passionate Radical. He raises sheep and cattle in Scotland and grows olives in France. He is married to Janet Reid, a journalist, and has two adult daughters.WHAT'S THAT WORD?!Co-host Pranati "Pea" Madhav joins Ramjee Chandran in the fun etymology segment, "WHAT'S THAT WORD?!" where they discuss the word “QUISLING” and Churchill's wit.CONTACT USReach us by mail: theliterarycity@explocity.com or simply, tlc@explocity.comOr here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theliterarycityOr here: https://www.instagram.com/explocityblr/

Norge erklærte seg nøytrale i krigen. Norge ønsket å holde seg ute av andre verdenskrig, akkurat som de hadde gjort i første verdenskrig. Norge valgte altså å ikke alliere seg med noen av stormaktene i Europa.  Men Tyskland ville ha det annerledes. Nazi-Tyskland, ledet av Adolf Hitler, planla et angrep på Danmark og Norge i 1939. Det var to hovedgrunner til at Tyskland ønsket å okkupere Norge. Den første var at Tyskland ønsket å ha marinebaser i Norge for tyske krigsskip. Fra Norge kunne skipene lettere reise ut mot Atlanterhavet og Nordsjøen. Dermed kunne de true Storbritannia lettere. Den andre grunnen var at Tyskland ønsket å ha kontroll over importen av svensk jernmalm til Tyskland. Jern er viktig i krig, og eksporten av svensk jernmalm gikk via norskekysten.  Den 9. april 1940 angreip Tyskland Norge. Tyskerne angreip med fly og båt. Vidkun Quisling, lederen for det høyreradikale norske partiet Nasjonal Samling, prøvde å gjøre statskupp. Quisling sa på radioen at han ville bli den nye statsministeren i Norge og at Norge måtte legge ned våpnene. Tyskerne krevde at kongen og regjeringa skulle godta Quisling som ny statsminister i Norge.

Last time we spoke about the Komiatum Offensive in New Guinea. The drive to Lae and Salamaua was raging on New Guinea. Mount Tambu was assaulted and the allies received hellish casualties trying to take it. The legendary Bull Allen saved countless lives during this action, but Mount Tambu simply couldn't be captured. The allies chose to isolate and surround mount Tambu instead. The allies secured took the sugarcane knoll, the timbered knoll and then found a path heading to Komiatum. Nakano ordered his men to hold Komiatum ridge, but their situation became more and more desperate. Allied artillery and aerial bombardment alongside the enveloping maneuvers were taking a toll, the Japanese had suffered 900 casualties since July 23rd. With more men dying minute by minute, Nakano ordered a withdrawal from Komiatum still believing the primary target of the allies was Salamaua.

On August 3rd, General Sasaki was forced to order a withdrawal from Munda. General Griswold sent a message over to Admiral Hasley declaring “Our ground forces today wrested Munda from the Japs and present it to you as sole owner”. Halsey in his typical fashion replied “keep ‘em dying”. Despite the blood, sweat and tears taking Munda, as a whole, operation cartwheel had fallen a month behind schedule. As Griswold noted “the months fighting had not been the Americans' finest hour in the Solomon islands campaign”. Halsey would add to it “the smoke of charred reputations still makes me cough”. Now just because Munda had fallen did not mean the work was all done, there was to be cleanup operations of course. General Sasaki ordered his forces to retreat northwards, most were enroute to the Kure 6th farm; the 13th regiment and Sasaki's HQ were going to Bairoko; the 3rd battalion, 23rd regiment and Yokosuka 7th guns were heading to Baanga island. The Americans would be in hot pursuit. General Griswold divided the cleanup operations, giving the 25th division the task of advancing across New Georgia to seize Bairoko Harbor and the Piru Plantation. General Hodge 's 43rd division was given the task of seizing the islands of Arundel and Baanga. General Collins would deploy the 1st battalion, 27th regiment and Colonel Dalton's 161st regiment to advance up the Bairoko trail; the rest of Colonel Douglas Sugg's 27th would advance along the Zieta Trail towards the Piru plantation. General Sasaki learnt on August 6th, the American navy had scored a small but conclusive victory when 6 US destroyers sunk 3 IJN destroyers, the Arashi, Kawakaze and Hagikaze during the Naval battle of Vella Gulf. This of course meant the Japanese reinforcement convoy had failed, thus Sasaki wasted no time ordered a general withdrawal to Kolombangara by the way of Baanga Island. Sasaki needed to give the men more time, so he reinforced the Yano battalion with the 12th company of the 3rd battalion, 23rd regiment who were left to defend the Kure 6th farm. Major Yano Keiji, a veteran of Guadalcanal, selected a rough terrain east and south of Zieta village and the Kure 6th farm to dig in. The Americans would later refer to it as “Zieta Garden”. The garden was to be Yano's first line of defense across the Zieta river. There was a bit of high ground due north of Zieta Village which would have been easier to defend, but he needed his men to protect the trail running to Lulu Channel and Baanga, his only line of communications. The 3rd battalion, 23rd regiment in the meantime were securing Baanga. General Sasaki radioed his plans to the 8th Fleet, but to his surprise was told to hold onto New Georgia until late September for “future operations”. Sasaki was bewildered by this, but understood Admiral Samejima then commanding the 8th fleet was trying to direct a land battle, and obviously he was not experienced in such things. What Sasaki did not know at the time was Samejima was being instructed by General headquarters to do this. On August 7th, the Army and Navy had agreed to pull out of the Central Solomons and would cooperate to bolster Bougainville's defenses. A revisión later on August 13th would instruct Koga, Kusaka and Imamura to hold onto as much of New Georgia as possible while Bougainville was being reinforced. Full evacuation of New Georgia was set for late September to early October, but the actual dates were dependent on the Bougainville progress. On August 8th Sugg's 2nd battalion advanced through a deep ravine going roughly 2 miles up the trail when his men were met with heavy machine gun fire. The Yano battalion was defending the barge supply route through the Lulu channel as their comrades and supplies made their way to Baanga. On August 9th, the 27th began their assault upon the Kure 6th Farm, employing a envelopment maneuver. The Yano battalion was holding them at bay, but gradually the allied forces were confining the Japanese into a smaller and smaller pocket. Meanwhile the 1st battalion was advancing north along the Munda-Bairoko trail where they joined Colonel Liversedge's men. On the 10th, Hodge ordered the 169th regiment to hit Baanga and on the 11th patrols from their 3rd battalion had located the Japanese strongpoint on its southwest tip. By nightfall, the American assault of the Kure 6th Farm forced Colonel Yano to withdraw back across the Zieta River to form a new defensive perimeter. His men performed a fighting withdrawal throughout the night seeing many Japanese scream and throw rocks at the Americans. The usual night time activities that kept the allied forces miserable.  On the 12th the Americans unleashed an artillery bombardment upon the Kure 6th Farm positions not realizing they had already been abandoned. The 89th had fired 2700 rounds, the heaviest concentration of the operation on completely empty positions. The Americans advanced over Yano's old positions, crossed the river and fell upon Yano's new defensive perimeter. On that day General Barker assumed command of the 43rd division as General Hodge returned to his command of the Americal Division. Barker began by sending L Company of the 169th regiment to occupy Baanga. L Company were met with unexpectedly heavy Japanese fire suffering 28 casualties before they were forced to pull back.    Meanwhile on August 13th, Sugg's 3rd battalion with E company managed to launch their main assault against the Yano battalion. They were attempting a envelopment maneuver against Yano's flanks, but heavy resistance saw Yano's right flank repel the attack. On the left there was a marshy plain that hindered the American advance forcing them to go too far left and thus failing to apply enough pressure. Although the assault failed, the unexpected left advance saw some gain. A patrol from H company stumbled across a heavily used trail leading to the Lulu channel. They established a roadblock that night allowing ambush efforts to hit the trail. The roadblock convinced Yano he was soon to be cut off, so he immediately prepared a withdrawal to Baanga.    In the meantime, Barker decided to use Vela Cela island as a launching point for an assault against Maanga. On August the 14th, the 3rd battalion, 169th regiment began occupying the small island before using it as a springboard to land at Baanga. However the Americans quickly found themselves surrounded by a mangrove swamp and the Japanese began tossing counter attacks until night fell.  Yano's forces repelled numerous American attacks from the 3rd battalion throughout the day, afternoon and night. The Japanese threw back one attack led by four marine tanks, which had crossed the river on a bridge engineers built. While doing this his men also began their retreat westwards. H Company met a brief exchange with Yano's men, but Yano decided not to seriously clash with them and withdrew his battalion to Baanga by the 15th.  The 27th occupied Zieta village, making contact with Schultz 3rd battalion, 148th infantry over on Zieta Hill to the north. After this the 27th would advance upon Piru plantation and Sunday Inlet, too which they also ran into mangrove swamps greatly hindering them. The fight for the Zieta area had cost them 168 casualties, the americans were seeing a continuous flow of fierce counterattacks at Baanga, prompting Barker to decided he would reinforce the beachhead with the 2nd battalion 169th regiment and the 1st and 3rd battalions of the 172nd regiment.   At this point General Griswold and Admirals Halsey and Wilkinson were trying to figure out what to do next. Halsey's original plan after the taking of Munda was to attack Kolombangara, but the recent performance of the Japanese defenders made the Americans quite skittish about performing an amphibious invasion. The battle for Munda point was one of the fiercest defenses the Japanese had put up. More than 30,000 troops had been brought over to face 5000 Japanese defenders within their network of entrenchments. As pointed out by the commander in chief of the US Navy planning memorandum “If we are going to require such overwhelming superiority at every point where we attack the Japanese, it is time for radical change in the estimate of the forces that will be required to defeat the Japanese now in the Southwest and Central Pacific.” Munda Point airfield would become a landmark victory because of the 6000 foot runway it would soon provide, alongside taxiways and its capacity as a base of operations. Halsey would later declare its airfield “to be the finest in the south pacific” and the Seabees would be awarded with a citation for their great efforts. Commander Doane would receive a special mention “by virtue of his planning, leadership, industry, and working ‘round the clock' to make serviceable the Munda Airfield on August 14th, 1943, a good four days ahead of the original schedule.” The seabees work was a testament not only to their morale and organization, but also the fact they held superior equipment. Admiral Nimitz would go on the record to state “one of the outstanding features of the war in both the North and South Pacific areas has been the ability of US forces to build and use airfields, on a terrain and with a speed which would have been considered fantastically impossible in our pre-war days.” Overall the Georgia campaign would go on the be an essential component in the strangulation of Rabaul, as pointed out by historian Eliot Morison “The Central Solomons ranks with Guadalcanal and Buna-Gona for intensity of human tribulation. We had Munda and we needed it for the next move, toward Rabaul; but we certainly took it the hard way. The strategy and tactics of the New Georgia campaign were among the least successful of any allied campaign in the Pacific”.   Allied intelligence indicated Kolombangara had roughly 10,000 Japanese defenders, thus Halsey was inclined to seek an alternative method rather than slugging it out. He thought perhaps they could bypass Kolombangara completely and instead land on Vella Lavella. If they managed to pull that off, it would cut off the Japanese supply line to Kolombangara which was basically surviving on fishing boats and barges based out of Buin. Halsey noted “Kolombangara was 35 miles nearer the Shortlands and Kahili. According to coast-watchers, its garrison numbered not more than 250, and its shoreline would offer at least one airstrip.” A reconnaissance carried out back on July 22nd reported very few enemy troops on the island and that it held a feasible airfield site at Barakoma which also had beaches capable for LST's to land at. Thus Halsey approved the plan and Griswold formed the Northern Landing Force, placed under the command of Brigadier General Robert McClure. The force consisted of the recently arrived 35th regiment of the 25th division attached to the 25th cavalry reconnaissance troops, all led by Colonel Everett Brown; the 4th defense battalion, the 58th naval construction battalion and the Naval base group.  To hit Vella Lavella they would require air supremacy and artillery planted upon Piru Plantation and the Enogai-Bairoko area. General Twinnings AirSols had 161 fighters back on July 31st, but by August 18th they would have 129 functioning. Twining had sufficient strength in bombers as the number of light and medium bombers had dropped by less than a dozen, at around 129. For heavy bombers his increased from 48 to 61. It was critical Munda airfields be fully operational by mid august, sothe Seabees of the 73rd and 24th naval construction battalions went to work. Admiral Fitch's plan for Munda airfield called for a 6000 long foot runway with a minimum 8 inch coral surface and taxiways and revetments ready for over 200 fighters by September 25th. Eventually this would also include 48 heavy bombers. The immediate job was the fighter strip as always, you prepare your defenses against air attacks before you bring in the heavy bombers. He had a week to make the field operational. Commander Doane of the 73rd Seabees had two critical assets. The first was Munda was by far the best airfield site in the Solomons. Beneath one to 3 feet of topsoil was solid coral and there was a plentiful supply of live coral which hardened like concrete, great for the surfacing. Second the 73rd was the best equipped battalion yet to arrive to the solomons with D-7 and D-8 bulldozers, ¾ yard power shovels, 8 yard carryalls and 7 ton rollers. Weather was good and the moon was bright for the week permitting night time work without lights. The immediate threat would have been a 12cm of the Yokosuka 7th SNLF at Baanga, but they never fired upon them. Again, wars are won by logistics and it can't be expressed enough what a colossal amount the Seabees did for the Pacific War. By August 14th, Mulcahy flew over to set up his HQ and the VMF-123 and VMF-124 flew into the base with a R4D carrying their gear and personnel. For the incoming invasion P-40s would be coming from Segi while Corsairs would be launched from Munda.  Admiral Kusaka had reformed his 1st Base air force thanks to the arrival of his long-sought reinforcements. In mid July reinforcements arrived to the Solomons in the form of the 201st Kokutai Aerial Bomb group and carrier Division 2's naval bombers from Ryujo. The overall strength of the 1st base air force was now at around 230 aircraft of various types. The land-based bombers would go to Rear Admiral Ueno Keizo's 25th air flotilla over in Rabaul. They were tasked with night bombing raids against Guadalcanal and New Georgia now. Naval fights and bombers would be merged into the 1st combined air attack force, later reformed into the 26th air flotilla led by Rear Admiral Sakamaki Munetake. There job was to destroy any enemy shipping in New Georgia and to conduct interceptions over the Munda-Buin areas. It was understood the Americans held numerical superiority, but the Japanese were willing to take them on hoping their fighting spirit would prevail. Meanwhile, back on the night of August 12th, Admiral Wilkinson deployed an advance party of 14 men led by Captain George Kriner to perform a reconnaissance of Vella Lavella. They would be reinforced by Companies E and G of the 103rd regiment when the scouts found 40 Japanese around Biloa and another 100 5 miles north of Barakoma. They had reached the island secretly using 4 PT boats, though Japanese floatplanes would made to bomb one of them. After the successful arrival of the advance party at Barakoma, F Company of the 103rd landed on August 14th to reinforce the beachhead.  The main invasión force designated Task Force 31 led by Admiral Wilkinson  would consist of 10 destroyers, 5 destroyer transports, 12 LCI's, 3 LST's and two subchasers. At 3:05am  the 1st transport group of the force departed consisting of the destroyer transports with 6 escort destroyers were carrying the 1st and 2nd battalions of the 35th regiment. Captain Ryan led the group aboard Nicholas while Wilkinson was aboard Cony. The second transport group made up of the smaller vessels carried the Seabees and support personally following an hour behind with 4 destroyer escorts led by Captain William Cooke. After the force departed Guadalcanal they were to approach the Gizo Strait around midnight, before beginning to unload in the early hours of august 15th, under the cover of fighters.  However Wilkinson would not be aware his force was spotted by a G3M Betty bomber which reported back to Admiral Samaki who immediately launched a strike force. By 8am, the 1st and 2nd battalions of the 35th regiment had landed. While the 3rd battalion began their unloading process enemy aircraft appeared. 48 Zeros and 6 Vals were intercepted by American fighters. By 9:15 all the troops were landed, now the equipment began to be unloaded. The Japanese launched two waves from Buin, the first appeared at 12:30, made up of 48 Zero's and 11 Vals. They were intercepted leading to no damage being done to the landing forces. 7 Zeros came in low to strafe the beach but were turned away by fire from 65 automatic weapons aboard the LST's. LST's in the past lacked adequate anti aircraft protection, thus 20 20mm guns were borrowed from Guadalcanal and set to use. At 5:30 32 Zero's and 8 Vals showed up but they too were intercepted. By 6pm the LSTs were beginning to retract. The strikes had amounted to 12 men killed on the beach and 40 wounded, it could have been much worse. The Japanese reported losing 9 Zeros and 8 Vals for the day while the Americans would claim to have lost a total of 5 fighters. Without any real land battle the amphibious invasion of Vella Lavella was a resounding success. After darkness settled in, Admiral Ueno's 5th air attack force over in Rabaul launched their final attempt against the American convoys. At 5:30pm, 3 Betty's that had launched out of Vunakanau were spotting the convoy and reporting their movements. They came across the LCI's southeast of Gatukai and the LSTs as they were approaching the Gizo strait. 23 Bettys in 3 Chutai's, one armed with torpedoes the other two with bombs approached. The torpedo armed Betty's attacked the LCI's while the bombers went for the LST's. The American destroyers tossed up a lot of anti aircraft fire as the torpedoes and bombs failed to hit targets. 4 Betty's would be damaged badly for their efforts. The Japanese reaction to the terrible results was to form an unrealistic plan to wipe out the American invasion by sending a single battalion to the island. When the landings became known, officers of the 8th fleet and 17th army formed a conference. They estimated, with accuracy surprisingly, that the landing force was around a brigade in strength. One officer proposed the idea to send a battalion to counterland. General Imamura's HQ calmly pointed out that sending a single battalion against a brigade would be like “pouring water on a hot stone”. The men were desperately more needed for the defense of Bougainville. The Japanese knew they were vastly outnumbered in the Solomons and that the fight for the central solomons was pretty much lost. They believed their only chance to successfully defend the rest of the solomons was to carry out a slow retreat in order to build up forces in Bougainville and Rabaul.  It was decided that two rifle companies of the Miktami battalion and a platoon from the Yokosuka 7th SNLF would be sent to Horaniu on the northeast corner of Vella Lavella. These forces would establish a barge staging base between Kolombangara and the Shortlands. Alongside this Rekata bay would be evacuated and its 7th Kure SNLF would set up a relay base at Choiseul. Imamura nad Kusaka planned to hold Horaniu for as long as possible, trying to establish a new supply route along the west coast of Choiseul.  For the Horaniu operation, Admiral Ijuins destroyer squadron of Sazanami, Shigure, Hamakaze and Isokaze were going to escort 22 barges, supported by 3 torpedo boats and two subchasers. The small armada departed Rabaul on August 17th, but Ijuin's destroyers were spotted quickly by an allied search plane 100 miles out of Rabaul. In fact, Wilkinson was anticipating the Japanese heading for Kolombangara or perhaps Barakoma. He sent 4 destroyers, the Nicholas, O'Bannon, Taylor and Chevalier under Captain Thomas Ryan. Ryan had been an ensign in Yokohama during the 1923 Great Kanto earthquake, where he saved the love of one Mrs. Slack from the burning Grand Hotel. This earned him the medal of honor making him 1 of 18 men to receive the medal of honor during the interwar period of 1920-1940. Ryans force departed Tulagi while the other American convoy, the 2nd echelon led by Cooke were landing equipment at Barakoma. By nightfall Ryans squadron were coming up the slot while the enemy convoy was being harassed by 4 Avengers. The Avengers failed to score hits, but the anti aircraft gunfire alerted Ryan, as the Japanese were reversing course heading in his direction. At 12:29am on August 18th O'Bannon made radar contact and a few minutes later the Americans could see the Japanese ships. At 12:32 the Japanese spotted Ryans force, prompting Ijuin to order a 45 degree turn northwest to try and lure the enemy away from the convoy. As his ruse succeeded there would be a pretty ineffective long range gun and torpedo duel seeing Hamakaze and Isokaze taking slight damage. Meanwhile the Japanese barges were racing to the coast. Ryan believed he had foiled the reinforcement when he engaged the destroyers . But because Chevalier was facing some mechanical failures and could not keep up speed to chase the Japanese destroyers, Ryan decided to turn back to engage the already landed reinforcements at Horaniu. However they managed to escape north too quickly, thus the Horaniu operation was quite a bit of success, with a lot of luck at play. Now we are shifting over to the frigid north waters of the Aleutians. The fall of Attu and Munda were pivotal moments of the Pacific war that completely changed the course of their respective campaigns. When Munda was taken, the Japanese realized the central solomons were a lost cause and began to move all resources and men they could to Bougainville. When Attu was taken, the Japanese realized the Aleutian islands campaign was a lost cause and decided to evacuate the forces on Kiska. The battle of the pips and miraculous evacuation of Kiska was completed by the end of July. Kiska was pummeled on July 26th and 27th under clear sunny weather. 104 tons of bombs hit Kiska's installation on the 26th in a large attack consisting of 32 B-24's, 24 P-38 lightnings and 38 P-40's. On the 27th it was hit with 22 tons of bombs. On August 1st Lt Bernard O'Donnel conducted the first reconnaissance sweep since the July 27th bombing and observed no Japanese fights, no anti aircraft fire and no ships at harbor. Meanwhile the blockade was being performed by Giffen and Griffen's task force who bombarded Kiska. Intelligence crews working on aerial photographs of the island and its installations noted a number of odd features. Practically all the buildings around 23 in all appeared destroyed, but with rubble patterns suggesting demolition rather than bombing. The Japanese also appeared to have done no repair work on the craters in the north head runway, which was very odd, it was around the clock kind of work for them. All the garrisons trucks seemed to be parked on the beach in clusters and it seemed they were not moving day to day. Some pilots reported a bit of activity, like narrowly missing flak and some vehicles and ships seen moving below, but Kinkaids HQ noted all these reports were coming from green pilots. Experienced fliers were not reporting such things. Radio traffic had vanished, some wondering if the bombing was so tremendous it destroyed all the radios. Generals Butler and DeWitt believed the Green pilots, but Generals Buckner and Holland Smith were very suspicious, pointing out that the Japanese had already carried out a secret massive evacuation at Guadalcanal. In fact Buckner and Smith kept asking Kinkaid to toss some Alaskan scouts ashore in rubber boats at night prior to an invasion to report if the island was abandoned or not. But Kinkaid had the last say in the matter and declined to do so. Kinkaid's decision was to go ahead with a full scale invasion of the island. In his words “if the enemy had evacuated the island, the troop landings would be a good training exercises, a super dress rehearsal, excellent for training purposes”.  On August 12th, Captain George Ruddel, leading a squadron of 4 fighters circled low over the anti aircraft gun positions on Kiska, received no flak so he landed on her North head runway dodging nearly 30 craters. The 3 other fighters followed suit and the pilots performed a tiny expedition for some time. They found no sign of people, just destroyed buildings and abandoned equipment. Nonetheless Ruddels report would not stop Kinkaid, only some scolding for doing something so dangerous. The invasion of Kiska, codenamed operation cottage, was set for August 15th. The invasion force was 30,000 Americans and 5300 Canadians under the overall command of Major General Charles Harrison Corlet. It consisted of Brigadier General Archibald Arnolds 7th division; Buckner's 4th regiment; Colonel Roy Victor Rickards 87th mountain infantry regiment, the 13th Canadian Brigade known as the Greenlight Force which consisted of the Canadian Fusiliers regiment, the 1st Battalion of Winnipeg Grenadiers, the Rocky Mountain Rangers regiment and Le Regiment de Hull led by Major General George Pearkers; there was also Colonel Robert Fredericks 1st Special Service force consisting of 2500 paratroops of elite American-Canadian commandos. Kiska marked the first time Canadian conscripts were sent to a combat zone in WW2. The men were equipped in Arctic gear, trained mostly at Adak, practicing amphibious landings using LCI's and LCT's. The naval forces were commanded by Admiral Rockwell were more than 100 warships strong, with Admiral Baker leading a group to bombard Kiska with over 60 tons on August 14th. The journey to the abandoned island was pretty uneventful. On August 15th, Admiral Rockwell dispatched the transports to gather off Kiska during a period of light fog. Major General Corlett's plan was to stage a diversionary landing using a detachment of Alaskan Scout led by Colonel Verbeck to hit Gertrude Cove which was assumed to be heavily fortified. While this occurred an advance force of the 1st, 2nd and provisional battalions of the 1st regiment, 1st special service force would secure the western side of the island, known as Quisling cove. The main force would land at a beach on the north near the Kiska volcano. Colonel Verbecks scouts and Colonel Robert Fredericks commands were the first to come ashore. They were met by empty machine gun nests as they climbed Lard Hill, Larry Hill and Lawson Hill, interesting names. They investigated caves and ravines only to find destroyed equipment. But perhaps the enemy was simply further up in the hills saving their ammunition to ambush them. During the morning the main force landed on Kiskas northern side whereupon they immediately began climbing some cliffs to reach objectives. In the process each battalion of the 87th mountain regiment captured Robber Hill, Riot Hill and Rose Hill. US Army Lt George Earle recalled this of the unique landscapes of Kiska “At one end was a perfectly shaped steaming volcano, cloudcushioned, well- wrapped […] all around were cliff-walled shores and, when visible, a bright green matting of waist-high tundra scrub and deep lush mosses – a great green sponge of slopes rising to a rocky knife-edge crest nearly eight hundred feet above the shore up in the fog, and zigzagging its ridge-line backbone toward the […] four-thousand foot cone of the volcano”. Lt Earle also noted the incessant rain and fog, Kiska saw roughly 250 days of rain per year on average and held a ton of clouds blotting out sunshine. On the day the allied force landed the island was blanketed with a thick fog. As the allied forces advanced they ran into a variety of booby traps the Japanese had taken a lot of time to leave behind, these included; typical land mines, improvised 155m shells with trigger wires, M-93 mine's laid upside down wired to blocks of TNT, timed bombs, candle bombs, and the classic grenades with trip wire. There was to be several casualties from booby traps. In the fog as timed bombs or other traps went off, allied forces opened fire towards noises believing the enemy was upon them. There was some friendly fire incidents amongst the Americans and Canadians, but not as much that has been perpetuated by quite a few videos on Youtube mind you. Its actually a myth thats been perpetuated in many books, in fact the main source I have been using for the Aleutian islands campaign is guilty of it sad to say. The friendly fire incidents on Kiska was not a large skirmish between American and Canadian forces that resulted in many deaths or wounded, no that was pretty much summed up to booby traps, a lot of them. If you want to know more about this, I did a podcast interview on my youtube channel, the Pacific War channel with Brad St.Croix, a historian focused on Canadian military history. The episode is titled the Canadian experience during the Pacific War, and Brad had a lot of, going to admit, vented anger about debunking this myth haha. Please go check it out, I have to admit of all my podcast episodes it has not received many views and I am sad at this because there's a lot of interesting stuff, like how Canada was going to be part of Operation Downfall. Anyways. The Americans and Canadians suspected the Japanese might be retreating into the interior or hiding in fight pits, so they were tense the entire time, after the stories from Attu who could blame them. The crack of a single rifle fire, would be met with more, but it always died down quickly. Corlett's forces continued to climb uphill towards Link Hill and Ranger Hill in the direction of the main enemy camp at Kiska harbor. They found all the fortifications they came across abandoned. The second wave of the main force were brought over consisted of the 1st regiment, 1st special service force who landed at Little Kiska Island unopposed. By August 18th Corlett was confident the enemy was not on Kiska, but he continued the search nonetheless, into the caves and ravine, until August 22nd. To quote Ian Toll's 2nd book of his pacific war trilogy  “Considering the expenditure of naval ordnance and aerial bombs on an island that had been vacated by the enemy, and the tremendous investment of shipping and troops in a bloodless invasion, the Kiska operation had been slightly farcical. In Pearl Harbor, the news was received in good humor. Nimitz liked to tell visitors how advance elements of the huge invasion force, creeping inland with weapons at the ready, were warmly greeted by a single affable dog that trotted out to beg for food” Indeed the capture of Kiska which ushered the end to the Aleutians campaign, was kind of a enormous blunder when you consider the amount of resources allocated to it. You always have to consider these resources could have been brought to the south pacific, but hindsight is hindsight. After the battle of Attu, the allies expected an absolute bloodbath on Kiska. For Corlett's men, the americans suffered 18 deaths, 170 wounded, the Canadians 4 killed and 4 wounded, 130 men also got trench foot. The destroyer Abner Read struck a Japanese mine on August 18th, suffering 70 dead and 47 wounded to bring the total casualties to 313. Generals Buckner and DeWitt sought an invasion of Paramushiro, but the joint chiefs of staff would gradually reject the idea because it was simply seen to be easier to drive through the central or south pacific to Japan. But I would like to point out, if the south and central pacific campaigns did not go well, the idea of hitting the Japanese home islands from the Aleutians could have been a very real thing. Kinkaid, Butler, Eareckson amongst many others would leave the north pacific to deploy in other theaters. It was only really Buckner who remained, DeWitt returned to the west coast, as did the majority of forces. Wanted a feel good end to this one. So the allied forces on Kiska found more than just booby traps, turns out the Japanese had abandoned a number of dogs on the island, so the allied troops adopted many of them and turned them into unit mascots and pets. Surviving photos of the soldiers and the dogs are abundant and cute.

The amphibious assault of Vella Lavella was a huge success, though now the battle for the small island was on. The farcical battle of Kiska had ushered in the end of the Aleutian islands campaign, birthing a long persisting myth to this very day of an incredible friendly fire battle.

Lord Gort will have his own Quisling to deal with as a Malta youth comes ashore to spy for Mussolini. Meanwhile, another convoy is attempted, but it too will fail. Gort has no choice but to reduce rations further. His biggest fear is if the Maltese people want to give up or will his soldiers give up the fight before a massive supply convoy can finally make it through. Learn more about your ad choices.
