"Verste tiden under krigen var med S/S Brant County med torpederinger i Atlanteren og bombenagrep i Irskesjøen. En tur vi krysset Atlanteren uten eskorte kom vi ut i storm og en waliser ble slått mot winschen og døde dagen efter. Han ble sydd inn i seilduk og til det ble festet det engelske flagg. Han ble senket i Atlanteren under det norske flagg som var festet til skutesiden så det ble igjen".

Going through new source material in order to document the war sailors and their history is an ongoing and extensive effort, and there exist no complete register over decorations awarded. Infomation about medals will therefore be registered gradually and be based on different source materials. The war sailors were awarded medals both during and after the war. Do you want to read more about decorations, then please study this page: Decorations
