On this day in 1940, the 7th HMS Glasgow entered a burning Molde to evacuate King Haakon VII, Crown Prince Olav, members of the Norwegian government—and 23 tonnes of gold bullion. A daring rescue under enemy fire, a powerful act of friendship. 🤝

With #VEDay80 still fresh in our minds, today we’re quietly remembering the sacrifices made on #DDay. Without those brave acts, victory in Europe wouldn’t have been possible. We will remember all those who sacrificed for our freedoms.
