The Altmark Incident was a naval skirmish of World War II between the United Kingdom and Nazi Germany, which happened on 16 February 1940. It took place in what were, at that time, neutral Norwegian waters. To date, it is the last major boarding action fought by the Royal Navy.
Jøssingfjord
Jøssingfjord is a fjord located within the municipality of Sokndal in south-western Norway. The fjord is known as the location of the Altmark Incident, where, during World War II, on February 16, 1940, the British destroyer Cossack managed to free prisoners taken by the Admiral Graf Spee from the German tanker Altmark. During the war, the term Jøssing came to mean a Norwegian patriot, the opposite of a Quisling (or traitor).
