Whakakihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: Ko te whakaekenga o Iceland (ko te ingoa waehere Operation Fork) na te Royal Navy me Royal Marines i puta i te 10 o Mei 1940, i te Pakanga Tuarua o te Ao. I puta te whakaekenga nā te mea i wehi te kāwanatanga o Ingarangi ka whakamahia a Īsana e ngā Tiamana, nāna i whakaekenga tata nei
I tua atu i a Denmark, i noho ki te kotahitanga whaiaro ki a Iceland, ā, i mua i te nuinga o te wā e whai mana ana mō te kaupapa here ā-waho o Iceland. I puta he whakahe a te Kawanatanga o Iceland, e whakapae ana kua "whakamekemeke rawa" tana wehenga, kua "whakamekemeke i tana mana motuhake".
