Depiction: Over a dozen anti-weapons group members huddle around a fence and talk to a German sailor. One protestor is recording the conversation. The German sailor seems reflective. Photo caption reads: Members of an Eastbay coalition group against shipping American missles overseas welcomed one of the crew members of the West German ship Alamania Express on Wednesay at the Port of Oakland. The German crew members had signed a petition against transporting cruise and Pershing 2 missles across international waters to Europe.
