Vidkun Quisling, (1887-1945) a strident Norwegian anti-Mason whose name has become synonymous with the word "traitor" collaborated with Germany in its conquest of Norway during World War II. Named head of the country by the Nazis, Quisling stripped and ruined Oslo's beautiful Masonic temple and used it for his own offices. At the end of the war he was convicted of treason and sentenced to death. In an ironic twist, his trial and sentencing took place inside a Masonic Lodge.
