The external website that I've linked to below (based on Arnold Hague's databases) has included Gansfjord in Convoy PK 107 from Pilottown to Key West in Sept.-1942. She left Pilottown on Sept. 29 and arrived Key West on Oct. 2, later proceeding to Ceiba, where she arrived Oct. 8. See also Page 4.

In the Norwegian magazine "Krigsseileren", No. 1/1985 I found the names of 16 Norwegians who are buried at Pine Ridge Cemetery, Saranac, NY. One of them was Rasmus Brakstad from Gansfjord, who died Jan.-1943. Norwegian War Graves on my Memorials page has more information about this Norwegian memorial in Saranac.
