The information on registered seafarers is not in all cases complete. As new sources are studied, information on engagements and medals etc. will be added to some of the already registered seafarers.

Ex gratia-arkivet:
Registernummer under krigen: London 7531, NY 2471.
Gift med (jf. London-kort): Synnøve Fredriksen.
I kravskjema, søknad om ferielønn og fartstidsoppgave fra Direktoratet for sjømenn, er det dokumentert avmønstring på M/T STORSTAD 11. september 1940. I London-kort og registreringskort i Ex gratia-arkivet, og i sjøforklaringer fra 2. verdenskrig, står det imidlertid at Fredriksen var ombord M/T STORSTAD ta skipet ble kapret 7. oktober 1940. I registreringskort står det for eksempel "Survivor S/S Storstad 7/10-40". Det er imidlertid valgt i dette tilfellet å forholde seg til den mest pålitelige dokumentasjonen og registrere at Fredriksen mønstret av før kapringen. Fredriksen er ikke "koblet" til sjøforklaringen til M/T STORSTAD.

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
