Nazi Germany's first major defeat in World War II.

Although the movie shows Narvik being reconquered by the Allies, Norway would later surrender to Germany in June 1940, after both the British and the French withdrew all forces from Norway to continue the fight in France. Germany would then create a puppet state called Reichskommissariat Norwegen that lasted until May 8th, 1945.
