Biography
Norwegian politician and resistance member during WW II. His father was leader of the Labour Party from 1918 until his death in 1922. His mother was a journalist at Arbeiderbladet, the party organ of the Labour Party.
In the the four volume work "Våre Falne [Our Fallen] 1939-1945," commissioned by the Norwegian government in 1945 to commemorate those who had perished during the war, Grepp's entry is in Volume 1, p. 715.
When the war broke out Grepp was studying medicine and was part of the leadership of the Norwegian Communist Party. He got involved in the resistance as a writer for an illegal newspaper which in the summer of 1944 had its base at the farm Skriulægret in Øystre Slidre. The base was stormed on 13 June 1944 during the counter-resistance operation "Operation Almenrausch." Grepp was one of the 38 arrested.
Grepp and several others were executed on 9 February 1945 at the Akershus Fortress in Oslo, Norway, in retaliation for the assassination of Karl Marthinsen, the commander of the pro-Nazi state police. He was 25.
