Heroes of Telemark  Expedition 2013…  to mark 70th Anniversary of WW2 Mission

 

This tough challenge marks the 70th anniversary of a highly skilled and dangerous series of missions to prevent Hitler creating an atomic weapon.  The original mission during WW2 will be recreated by injured and amputee service men from Pilgrim Bandits, this  ground-breaking fund-raising expedition will cross the Norwegian Hardanger Plateau retracing the steps of allied and Norwegian forces.  I will be accompanying these severely injured forces personnel, to raise funds for Pilgrim Bandits.

The route will cross the home of one of Norway’s largest glaciers, the Hardanger Plateau. At 2500sq miles of eroded mountain plateau, reaching 6000ft above sea level at its highest point, the conditions are extreme and will most certainly be challenging.

The original WW2 operation comprised 6 operations and it is the 6th and final part that the Expedition we are seeking to recreate and in so doing, pay tribute to the original brave force. 

All money raised will go towards the expedition and the work that Pilgrim Bandits do to provide support for our injured forces past and present. Please follow the link to the Charities website for further details of what they do.
