  Otto Ruge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ruge's main strategy was to slowly retreat northwards and to establish a defence line south of Trondheim while waiting for the allies to reconqure that city.
Ruge was evacuated after the fall of southern Norway and participated in the Battle of Narvik.
General Otto Ruge was awarded "Storkorset med Kjede" for his service to the nation during WWII which is the highest decoration of St. Olav, normally reserved for foreign heads of state.

One of the final acts of the Norwegian authorities before dispersement was the promotion of Otto Ruge to the rank of Major General and appointment to Commander-in-Chief of the Norwegian Army, responsible for overseeing the resistance to the German invasion.
While a surge of volunteers grew the division from 3,000 to roughly 12,000 troops, and Ruge was further aided with 11.1 million kroner (4.5 million USD) smuggled to him, it would never be a force capable of direct offensive action against the Germans.
Dissention amongst the various branches was strong though, as the British Army, after conferring with Otto Ruge, wanted to assault Trondheim in Central Norway while Churchill insisted on reclaiming Narvik.

 13 April 1940   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
German forces are well-established in the south and centre of Norway and have control of the air.
General Ruge is unlikely to surrender though, he says, "the defeat or captivity of our forces is better for the nation than their voluntary capitulation."
Today, Frihagen appeared at Ruge’s HQ in Rena and presented him with the money, for use in paying the recruits to his Resistance force and to purchase food and other supplies.

Ruge's historical writings drew attention to his tour as Admiral, Army Group (B) during 1944, closely associating him with one of the few German generals held in high esteem by both the British and Americans, namely the legendary “Desert Fox” Erwin Rommel.
Ruge's association with the deceased Rommel enabled him to act as an interlocutor between the British, Americans, German nationalists, and the growing minority of Germans who identified with the German resistance movement and the Twentieth of July 1944 attempt on Hitler's life.
While Ruge and Wagner might later publicly emphasize the challenges of building a new navy from ground zero, their private papers and archival records clearly show that they had completed much of the staff work and planning while employed as members of the innocuous sounding Naval Historical Team (Bremerhaven).

General Ruge's task had therefore reduced itself with alarming rapidity to the defence of the agricultural area between Oslo and the high mountains, in which the most important natural features were the two great lakes, Mjösa and the Randsfjord.
General Ruge received it rather coolly, although it had partly originated in Norwegian official circles, and did not conceal his regret that the British authorities had so far kept him in the dark about their intentions.
This question was raised at a further conference called by General Ruge at Öyer at midday on the 20th at which he put forward a written declaration to the effect that British detachments must comply with the wishes of the Commander-in-Chief or else he would resign.

Paul Klee suggested a dynamic visualisation of primary colours, represented them through their quantitative ratio: in the figure 29, each primary colour stretches for 2/3 of the circle and its main consistency is in the opposite part of its complementary; decreasing, the colour vanishes both towards left and right.
According to the experiment of Philip Otto Ruge we can draw a real globe of colours (figure 30).
One pole is white (north pole) and the other one is fl (south pole); the central band (equator) is made by the primary, secondary and tertiary colours; going up from equator we will find blends of colours with white, while going down we will have blends with fl.

Marx’s correspondence with Arnold Ruge was occasioned by his intention to contribute to the opposition periodicals of the time including the Deutsche Jahrbücher, edited by Ruge.

Publication was discontinued owing to the difficulty of secretly distributing it in Germany, and to disagreement with Ruge.
Marx’s articles in this journal showed that he was already a revolutionary who advocated "merciless criticism of everything existing", and in particular the "criticism by weapon", and appealed to the masses and to the proletariat.
With the continuing decline of radical mass struggle and revolutionary hopes – especially after 1923 – and having been unemployed for a number of years, Mattick emigrated to the United States in 1926, whilst still maintaining contacts with the KAPD and the AAU in Germany.
