Any suggestions on a source for a detailed order of battle for the Allied naval units taking part in the Norway campaign, particularly the British and French destroyer/submarine flotillas, the heavy units are usually well covered.

Most web sources seem to be great on the German forces involved but a little less than ideal when looking at the allies.

Carojon;

I spend many years researching the RN and MN OBs for Norway. If you contact me off line with specific periods, I can supply more than you would need.
