An excellent picture of a ship with an interesting life:
Built 1928 for A. P. Möller the "Jane Maersk" was seized 10.05.40 in Tarakan by the Netherlands. Renamed "Ambo" the ship was used as naval auxiliary tanker. 02.03.42 scuttled at Soerabaja the ship was raised and repaired by the Japanese as "Teikai Maru". She was sunk by American aircraft 30.12.44 in the South China Sea (17.18 N/ 119.25 E).
