Here’s a few to get you started, the history and a good link. If you freepmail me some details in response to my freepmail to you we can look a little deeper perhaps.

Here is some excellent information on Norwegian Merchant shipping during WWII. I know know how they came to NY, very interesting.

Here is a link to Norwegian Merchant Marines, kept by a daughter of a Merchant Marine from WWII.

Thanks. I put this on my favorites. I found another picture taken at the same time and my mother was pregnant, so that means I was (a big baby) less than a year old (my sister was born six days before I was a year old). So I’m thinking it probably was in April or May when he was here, in 1940, when she was born.
