<HTML>Derek:

I am pleased to know that Joe Slavick contacted you. Because he has recently been transferred within the United States Air Force, I have lost contact with him.

Anyway, assuming the 17 April 1945 date on the photo is correct, Vizeadmiral Rogge in command of "Task Force Rogge", according to Slavick was, in that time frame, that "bombarding Russian positions along the North German Baltic coast". Later this Task Force became involved, with other vessels, in the rescue of two and a half million German civilians and soldiers from East Prussia and Pomerania. That is why the Prinz Eugen was in Copenhagen - disembarking refugees. According ot Slavick, the Prinz Eugen was eventually taken to Wilhelmshaven, and Rogge was interned until September 1945.

Cordially.
