[Jan Mostek]

Lynn, it is a theme for the book. I am not an expert, but there were three main ways: All the trucks were delivered under Lend Lease Act signed in Congres at 1941 (having signed this Act the USA in fact stopped it´s neutrality and joined the other Allieds against Hitler´s Germany). All the goods (perhaps with the exemption of planes) was delivered by convoys. Everything from locomotives over jeeps, uniforms and also gasoline or meat cans. There were three main ways, North, via UK, then over Arctic sea and Barents sea to ports of Archangels or Murmansk, where the goods was overloaded on trains, East way, from ports on US west coast around Kamchatka and Sakhalin to Vladivostok, then again overloaded on trains and continued on Siberian Railroad, and the South way, by ships to Persian Gulf then on trucks over Iran mountains to Teheran. It it very likely that fom Persian gulf the trucks were drived, not loaded. Best regards, Jan Mostek.
