Soldiers wade ashore from boats

Below a steep, wooded hillside men jump from the bows of boats into shallow water, raising sheets of spray; beside a jetty a crowded boat empties its soldiers onto a rocky shore; against the light a line of helmeted men with rifles splashes through the shallows and runs up the beach. According to the source British troops landing in Norway, April 1940; whether the scene was filmed during the landings or at an exercise is not established.
