him, only to follow his tracks. The tracks led the German task force to a cabin at Forsetvollan in Budal. Nils Uhlin Hansen was staying in the cabin at the time, and when shooting ensued, Hansen was killed. Two days after his death Norwegian saboteurs carried out Operation Woodlark, killing 70–80 troops by destroying the bridge over the Jørstadelva, west of Jørstad. Awards and legacy Uhlin Hansen was awarded the Norwegian War Medal, the Defence Medal 1940–1945 and then the Norwegian War Medal with Star. A road in Trondheim has been named for him. His national long jump record stood until 1959, when it was broken by Roar Berthelsen with eleven centimetres.
