Hi George & MPC !
I am borne and I live in Sweden.
We were \"neutral\" during the whole conflict of WW II.
My Grand Father was Machine Chief aboard a Swedish 3000 Merchant ship called THULE.
When THULE carried iron ore to Germany,the RAF bombed her.
When THULE carried ball bearings to England,the Luftwaffe bombed her.
Luckily no a/c bomb did hit her,but she had near misses!
There was a war on,and each country in this war,probably regarded THULE
as a Blockade Runner,when Thule visited the opposing country.
Best regards/Anders.</HTML>
