I did research this afternoon on Longyearbyen and the Russian coal mining operation at Barentsberg. Can't find a topo sheet yet but still looking.
One of the problems I'm having is finding good satellite coverage for areas in Finnmark, nortern Finland, and Troms. So I'm relying on old Soviet maps for many of the areas of interest I have.
I knew the Canadian CAST Brigade disbanded in 1989 and Canada limited its ready status for involvement in Norway. Shame, good soldiers properly tasked.
Looking forward to seeing your scenario soon.
