Winston Churchill
The whole of northern Norway was covered with snow to depths which none of our soldiers had ever seen, felt, or imagined. There were neither snow-shoes nor skis - still less skiers. We must do our best. Thus began this ramshackle campaign.
Winston Churchill
Victory is the beautiful, bright-colored flower. Transport is the stem without which it could never have blossomed.

When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.
