Einen schönen Abend,

per Zufall habe ich diese Woche ein Video mit Aufnahmen eines Marinefährprahms gefunden. Der Film zeigt wohl die Einnahme der italienischen Hafenstadt Triest durch jugoslawische Truppen und den Einmarsch von Briten.
Ab 1:58 min. sieht man verschiedene dt. Schiffe am Strand und mehrmals Details des MFP.

Bin gespannt, wer mir mehr zu dem Schiff sagen kann :-)

Gruss

Hallo Thomas,

1.) Es werden die aus Triest in die Tagliamentomündung ausgebrochenen und (großteils) auf Strand gesetzten dt. Fahrzeuge gezeigt: :TU:)

ZitatMajor Swanson, who went ahead with three carriers to investigate, found a large force of Germans landing from 36 ships of various types at the mouth of the Tagliamento, protected by naval craft holding off three British torpedo boats at a range which prevented them from interfering. The Germans were fleeing from the Yugoslavs and believed they were landing in country still held by their own forces and therefore would be able to make their way into Germany. Swanson saw their commander, who agreed to a truce. The ensuing argument between McPhail, Swanson and the battalion Intelligence officer (Second-Lieutenant Craig1) on one side and three German officers on the other lasted longer than three hours, during which time a large landing barge was beached and vehicles and artillery unloaded. The Germans insisted that they were going back to Germany, but McPhail told them they would have to lay down their arms immediately. Eventually the enemy agreed to surrender. The sight of B Squadron's tanks in hull-down positions might have influenced this decision.

A prisoner-of-war cage was set up at Latisana and another at Lignano to accommodate the 6000 Germans, most of whom were army and navy men who had been employed on coastal defence and port work in and around Trieste. Next day they began unloading food from their fleet to feed themselves until other arrangements could be made. While they were doing this they set fire to four ships, but after the naval commander was severely reprimanded, there was no further attempt at sabotage. Several days passed before 21 Battalion was able to hand over all its prisoners to the divisional cage and return to 5 Brigade.

Wenn Du in der MFP-Datenbank (http://www.historisches-marinearchiv.de/projekte/landungsfahrzeuge/marinefaehrprahm/beschreibung.php) nach "Tagliamento" suchst, dann finden sich 7 MFPs der dort gestrandeten Flotte.

Sehr schöner Fund.

2) Ab 03:10 wird´s auch für die KK-Fahrzeugler interessant.
