Wreck Identity

[julian anstis]

Can anyone throw any light as to the identity of this wreck seen at Piraeus, Greece on 2nd May 1969. It was not possible to take other photo's or to go along the quayside to gain any more info due to the political situation out there at the time. Apart from the general appearance of fire damage nothing else is known about her.
