SS Springfjord
SS ''Springfjord'' was a cargo ship that was launched in Norway for a British shipping company in 1939, taken over by Nazi Germany in 1940, re-taken by the United Kingdom in 1945 and destroyed by the CIA in Guatemala in 1954.
In 1939 Trondhjems mekaniske Værksted (TMV) of Trondheim, Norway launched ''Springfjord'' for Springwell Shipping Co, Ltd of London.〔 Springwell created a separate company, Springfjord Shipping Co, Ltd, to actually own the ship.〔 ''Springford'' was a conventional cargo steamer of her era, powered by a three-cylinder triple-expansion steam engine of TMV's own manufacture.〔
==Seized by Germany in the Second World War==
In April 1940, while ''Springfjord'' was still being fitted out in Trondheim, the German troops invaded Norway. The German authorities had her completed for ''Deutsche Dampfschiffahrts-Gesellschaft "Hansa"'' (DDG Hansa) of Bremen, who renamed her ''Rüdesheimer''.
In May 1945 German forces in Norway surrendered to the incoming British military occupation. ''Rüdesheimer'' was seized at Tønsberg and transferred to the British Ministry of War Transport. The MoWT added its standard "Empire" prefix to her original name, making her ''Empire Springfjord''. In 1946 the MoWT was dissolved and in 1947 the ship was restored to Springwell Shipping Co Ltd, who reinstated the original version of her name ''Springfjord''.
