She was requisitioned by the Kriegsmarine during the Second World War, serving as Schiff 4, V 1801 Wandrahm and V 6114 Eismeer.
[2] Wandrahm was built in 1927 as yard number 735 by Stettiner Oderwerke for H. M. Gehrckens, Hamburg, Germany.
[7] Eismeer was allocated to the Soviet Union post-war as part of the war reparations.
It was found that her hold capacity was too small compared to Liberty ships also used in that role.
[8] Withdrawn from service in 1964,[4] she was mentioned in an accident report in 1965,[2] and was still on the shipping registers in 1969.
