I don't think many people had very good memories of this ship.They scrapped this ship some 45 years ago.
the Empire Ken was originally built in Germany between the two World Wars, and that the Germans had used this ship as a hospital ship and a U Boat tender at different times during WW2. Britain took over the use
ship after the end of WW2, all the sheets and the pillows that we used on this ship were still marked with the Swastika and other Third Reich emblems.
