Heavy water cell from Vemork
An original piece of equipment from the Vemork heavy water plant on display in the Norwegian Resistance Museum in Oslo.

The success of Operation Gunnerside was later regarded by Britain's Special Operations Executive as the most successful act of sabotage in the war. Here's to the real Heroes of Telemark.
