U.S. Forces take over German ports.

U.S. Forces take over German ports. Once the pride of German shipping, the former luxury liner "Europa" starts its trip to a drydock in Bremerhaven after being out of service for five years. Some of the 13 harbor tugs needed to maneuver the 52,000-ton vessel are shown pushing her as civilians and U.S. soldiers stationed in the area watch. The "Europa" will undergo general overhauling and repairs before being converted to a troop transport.
