Theron P. Snell shared two photos in Antwerp during WWII. They came from Maynard P. Short, who served in the 282nd Ord. Ballistic detachment. It looks like a pretty quiet day at the docks in 1945.

John Partridge served as a lieutenant with the 13th Major Port during the war, and picked up this map of the docks.

I also scanned an aerial photo showing the section of the port operated by the Americans. This was in a history book of the 13th Major Port printed in 1950.
