Original Toronto Star caption: Courageous Norwegians will be given Civic welcome Monday. When the crew of the Harpefjell; which has crossed the Atlantic despite having its anchor blown off by dive bombers and its decks scarred by machine-gun bullets; arrive in Toronto; they will be paraded to the city hall. Leading the parade will be the group of Norwegians shown here. All are former sailors who experienced torpedoing during the invasion of Norway and who are now members of the Royal Norwegian Air Force.
