ABOUT
It was the custom of the German Naval Command in World War II to name Allied convoys after the U-Boat commander who made the first sighting report. Kapitan lieutenant Johan Kleber sighted convoy JW137, Murmansk bound, as it battered its way through the freezing storms and gloom of an Arctic winter; and so Kleber's Convoy it became. Kleber, with fifteen U-Boats concentrating for the attack, was determined to inflict mortal damage on the convoy of thirty-five merchant ships. The British Vice-Admiral, with twenty-six escort vessels, was determined to get it through. It was to be a fight to the death.
