While strolling through the heavily-bombed Norwegian town of Namsos. Sandler and a companion were attacked by a Nazi airplane. Following is his account of the attack).
By Ake Sandler

The town had been bombed by German planes and completely wiped off the map. Only building left
which had a huge 75-foot cross made of bricks in front of it.
I stayed all night m this building and the next morning about 9 o'clock my Swedish friend—a veteran of the Spanish and Finnish wars—and I went down into the city to examine the ruins.
It was a wonderful Sunday morning. quiet and peaceful and we thought that the Nazis were safely gone until suddenly we heard the far-away drone of a motor.
“Do you hear it?" my friend, the volunteer, asked.
"Sounds like a plane.” I replied.
“There he is!” he shouted excitedly.
: headed towards us.
Do you think he’s seen us?” I asked.
"Undoubtedly.” my friend said.
"What do you think his business I is?"
"He's here to admire his own masterpiece, of course.” my friend returned.

The plane came down low—so low that the sounds of its motors throbbed deafeningly in our ears— then made a wide turn above the fjord and disappeared over the other side of the mountains.
