My solo Operation Frankton tribute completed today - and the heroes of that mission remembered and honored.🇬🇧 A more detailed after action review will follow soon. Thanks to all who took interest and learned more about what those brave men undertook and accomplished 80 years ago.

My next WWII commemoration. Two fellow U.S. Special Forces 🇺🇸 vets are joining me. The movie "Heroes of Telemark" and 🇳🇴 miniseries "The Heavy Water War" are worth watching to learn more about the mission we'll be honoring 80 years after the Norwegian commando raid.

Currently enjoying coffee and a good book near a place where history was made 80 years ago. Spent the day skiing in the tracks of Norwegian heroes, to honor and remember their service and sacrifice. The mission continues tomorrow. More to follow.🇳🇴

Last week in Norway I fulfilled a promise to Sam of Prairie Fire Art Co to recreate his "Resistance" painting. We were in the Jansbu hut on the Hardangervidda - the same hut used by the Norwegian heavy water saboteurs 80 years earlier. De Oppresso Liber🇺🇸 Alt for Norge 🇳🇴

Chow today with Army buddies BG (Ret) Bob Enzenauer and Tech Sgt John Sekulich and his wife Charlotte. Doc Enz picked up the tab, but John paid the other bill in WWII - ensuring we could enjoy our lunch in peace and freedom. 🇺🇸 Still waiting on his Légion d’honneur 🇫🇷 though.

A documentary about our 🇳🇴 expedition is in the works. Our @ExpeditionsSoe teammate Gregor did all the work. "Glad that's not my job," I thought every time he got out his camera drone in those conditions. He's a master of his craft as you will see here. vimeo.com/822708904/2c4c…

My dashcam footage, while listening to Foghat the other night. This dude should be riding motorcycles in Hollywood as a stunt man. A bit farther down the road, he popped another wheelie. Easily doing 70mph. Hope he's an organ donor. Notice the police? youtu.be/iVUvrl8dLjY
