Description: (German Battleship, 1939) View looking down from battleship's main deck, forward, as she steams through ice in the Baltic Sea during the winter of 1939-40, probably in January 1940. The western Baltic ice was very heavy into February 1940. The ship's stem runs horizontally through the middle of the view, from left-center to the right edge. Copied from the contemporary German photo album Meine Kriegserinnerungen auf Schlachtschiff Scharnhorst, page 7. U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command Photograph.
