My Uncle Alfred "Fritz" Bergman was a US Navy Officer (possibly a Lt. Commander) assigned to the Murmansk run. I know no more than that he was thrown across the deck of his ship under heavy bombing, and was grievously wounded. He had to wear a men's corset for the rest of hi life as a result of his wounds. I have been looking for a long time to see if I could find more about his service. The chapter on the Murmansk Run is a beautifully written account of this barely-known effort. I could feel the danger and admire the courage of those who took part in it. Thank you so much for this information; I shall deeply cherish it
