<HTML>I personally doubt if they`re the original plans...that every destroyer carried a copy of the Weserübung..more likely local orders for the area around Narvik, the main planes were carried with Blücher which sank outside Oslo..before Blücher capasized and sank, the plans were burnt, actually one paper of the plans washed ashore in 1946. Much strange has been found around Blücher, I heard a story of a fisherman that got a skeletonhead with a helmet during trawling.

But back to Narvik..it`s a shame that peace of these wargraves are disturbed..Many sailors lost their lives in the battle of Narvik, just during the sinking of Norwegian warship \"Norge\" over 90% of the crew perished when she broke in two.
