|Description=Major General Wagner, Commander of German forces in the Dodecanese, and two of his staff officers come alongside the destroyer HMS KIMBERLEY, on a motor launch which the Germans had captured from the British a few months previously. The KIMBERLEY took Wagner to the island of Symi in the Aegean, where the unconditional surrender of German forces in the region was signed. (Comment: most probably HDML motor launch, possibly ML 1039 or 1069 captured in Tobruk in 1942)
