Salvage Work in the Suez Canal
Caption Description
This picture, taken on 10 Jan., shows the UN salvage vessels working on the wreck of the sunken Egyptian landing craft ""Akka"", which went down with a cargo of cement and is considered one of the most serious obstacles facing the UN fleet in the Canal. The UN vessels ""Switzer"" ""Ausdauer"", ""Energie"", ""Wotan"" and ""Hermes"" were placing small cables under the sunken ship. (At a later stage heavier cables for lifting will be pulled through; in addition, a sand dredger will dig on one side of the ship to create a pocket so as to straighten the vessel; then ""camels"" --which are large tanks full of air--will be placed around the ship; with the buoyancy created, cranes will then go to work to lift it.)
