Bremerhaven, Germany. Cloudy & cold.
Finally got here - we were all docked by the time Sam and I woke up. We had to rush to make it to breakfast - afterwards, about 10:30, they gave liberty card's and we took off - The women stare unashamedly at American women, because of their clothes, and they don't stare and leave, they stare until we leave. The buildings that have been bombed give you a sick feeling in your stomach, but as far as I'm concerned, there's no trace of pity. It wasn't supposed to have been as bad as Berlin, but it still isn't good.
We went to the Army P.X. for some beer, then back to the ship after much ado with the German bus driver about no A.G. cards. Evidentially they don't think a passport is enough but they finally just gave up and let us on. Went to the Bon Hoff later and drank beer & ate liverwurst sandwiches - mighty good - after that beer I feel as tho I can go on.
The Germans loved Sandy - and everyone rubs his head. Most of our friends got off tonight.
