What happened to CHRISTIAN SEVERIN ANDRESEN? A Norwegian frontfighter.Age 19. Killed
in Ladzyn, Poland and buried at Vaivara in Estonia.He was born October 27, 1924 and he died August 1, 1944. I do find the information about him confusing: Killed in Poland and buried in Estonia. The book titled : " De som falt " ( Those who were killed) has been up-dated by the author, Eirk Veum and the photo editor, Geir Brenden.The book was published in year 2009. Eirik Veum and Geir Brenden have written
a very interesting book. But I do not find any new information about Christian Severin Andresen in the up-dated version? Why asking the question? After having viewed a television programme about the gravestones at Vaivara in Estonia, I saw his
name on one of the gravestones? Are we talking about the same person? About 12000
young Norwegian men wanted to support the German fight to dominate the world.5500
of them joined the fight and about 852 were killed.The mentioned book contents the history of those who lost the war. Not wanted in Norway and the history of the frontfighters should have been written 60 years ago.I appreciate the history of
the young Norwegian soldiers even if I have problems in understanding the reasons for
the fight.
