One of the unique stories is the story of the Orient Shipping
Line which was founded in Germany in 1933 by five German Jews
that wanted to find a way to take their money out of Nazi
Germany.
They bought two barges (Dora and Carola) and
they sail from Hamburg to Haifa under German command and the
unique combination of the Nazi flag and the company flag (Blue
Magen David on white with the letter O inside it). After arriving
to Haifa, the German crew was sent back and the boats sailed only
with the company house flag. The company failed in its business
and dissolved in 1934.
