 | | The Altmark had not proceeded more than 100 miles south of Bergen, closely hugging the craggy, fjord-bitten coast, before three big British reconnaissance planes swooped low over her. |
 | | The destroyer Intrepid halted the Altmark, but while Captain Philip Louis Vian of the senior destroyer Cossack had words with the Norwegian gunboat's commander, the Altmark slid into Joesing Fjord, a deep, narrow, dead-end harbor five miles long. |
 | | The Norwegians explained that their authorities had found the Altmark to be unarmed, were unaware of any prisoners aboard. |
