U.S. Forces take over German ports. The 52,000-ton "Europa" lies at a dock in Bremerhaven awaiting removal to drydock, where she will undergo repairs and general overhauling before being converted to a troop transport. She is guarded by U.S. Navy personnel. Built in 1928, the "Europa" lay idle during the five years of war.
