Norway's slow mobilisation beside Denmark's rapid collapse

Norway's choice to begin a slow mobilisation looks especially dangerous beside the German invasion of Denmark that same morning. The Danish operation is presented as a clearer example of blitzkrieg than the advance into France because it had no supply pauses built into it. In France, German units kept moving past their intended resupply points and consequently ran short. The comparison separates the shock of a fast campaign from the logistical endurance needed once a force must continue operating.
