Re: Repatriated Luftwaffe wounded

Hi Tony,

That ship, a converted liner, was possibly the Empress of Russia. It had arrived in Glasgow c.30 September 1943 from New York. It may have been there for up to two weeks before departing for Sweden.

This information from the excellent 'Footprints on the Sands of Time' by Oliver Clutton-Brock.

Regards,

Martin.
