Think of Merchant Mariners and you don't often think of war heroes.
Big mistake.

Good post!

You needed to be reminded?

Not really. However, I think that many people have no idea about the
dreadful losses suffered by the merchant marine on the "Atlantic Run".


They needed more courage than the military personell who served on
fortified naval vessels.
