SIS operated more than one hundred intelligence operations in Norway during World War II, with about 200 agents shipped from Britain to Norway. Their principal operational goals were to gather information on German warships and ships traffic along the Norwegian coast. The normal communication channel was coded radio transmissions. 26 of the radio agents in Norway lost their lives during the war, either in combat, or after being captured by the Germans.
Lieutenant-Commander Eric Welsh was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1944 and a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1952. Provided by Wikipedia
