Sverre Kjeldstadli
Sverre Arnljot Breste Kjeldstadli (14 February 1916 – 28 March 1961) was a Norwegian historian.
During World War II he was a courier for Milorg. His PhD thesis from 1959, "Hjemmestyrkene. Hovedtrekk av den militære motstanden under okkupasjonen" (English: The home forces; Main features of the military resistance during the occupation), has been an inspiration for later works by other historians.[1]
He was a son of trade unionist Lars Kjeldstadli (1870–1934) and his wife Beate (born Lotsberg; 1880–1965). He was a son-in-law of Daniel Grini,[2] and together with Ellen Helvig Grini (1918–2001) he had the son, historian Knut Kjeldstadli.[3]
Sverre Kjeldstadli died on 28 March 1961 and was buried in the borough of Ullern, Oslo.[4]
