Nazi "Ghost Ship ": On June 29, 1933, the "Nordwestdeutsche Zeitung" printed a picture of the first ship of the Marine SA in Bremerhaven - a 43 meter long relic from the German Empire. Built in 1918 as a minesweeper of the type FM 21 on the Bremerhaven Seebeck shipyard, it found the way back to the Weser estuary via detours. There the rusty barge became known as the "ghost ship", on which dozens of communists were tortured.
