Body of girl taken from deck. Location of events unknown.
Shipwreck fatalities pulled out of water by soldiers; sailors; volunteers `. MS Men leaning down; pulling a rope tied round corpse of slender young woman -w/ long white or light coloured dress. Some other men below help to lift the girl's body. One man unties rope. Shot showing bottom half of body and man's legs; as they lift body onto a cot -- she has on one shoe.
They cover her w/ blanket. Men carry body away on stretcher - can see hair hanging off. (This story is excruciating in its detail.)Title: Other Bodies are removed from water. Shot from behind the men as they lift man's body. GV some small boats in water; another man's corpse is lifted onto a private boat - rigor mortis has set it & legs are stuck in partially bent position - other workers in FG & at side - some wear fisherman's hats; some Navy (?) hats. Soldiers possibly Italian. Scary; tragedy; sad; drowning.
