The first in the NORTH ATLANTIC CHRONICLES SERIES,
the ships of PQ-17 are under attack by the Ju-88 bombers of III/KG-30
based at Bardufoss, Norway. In early 1942, Hajo Hermann (father of the
German night fighters "Wild Boar" tactics) was assigned as the commander
of III/KG-30, attacking arctic convoys from Norway, including the infamous
attack on Convoy PQ-17.
