Copy of "Ordeal of Convoy N.Y. 119", by Charles Dana Gibson, Ensign Press, Camden, Maine, 1992, second edition; PLUS TLS from US Army Gen. Omar Bradley (1893-1981) an TLS from Konteradmiral Bernhard Rogge (1899-1982), German scourge of WWII convoys, both thanking the author for sending copies of the book. Rogge, Commander of the Hilfskruzer 'Atlantis' for its entire run of March 1940-Nov 1941, was known for his fair treatment of POWs, one of the few high commanders of the German Navy not prosecuted for his actions during the war. He was later a NATO commander.
