Wilhelmshaven is the big port South of Hamburg, that would be the one.

Germany has always been the home of a strong but still latent anti American sentiment and that became obvious to me when I moved there in 1974.

Anti American makes Ivan (these days: Vladi) look better, right?????

Yes, I know this sounds crazy, but it is so true.

Looking for the background for this, comparing Japan with Germany long ago came to my mind, since both of them were seriously beaten by the US in WW II.

Now here the fact of interest comes in, that I have never detected any anti US sentiment like that in Japan anywhere! Does not exist!!!

I have my own theory about how come, but that will be subject for another discussion.

The Japanese don't have and never did have any illusions about the true character of the Soviet or Russia nation and their plans.

But then again, the Soviet occupation of the Northern Territories (Kurrile Islands), which took place AFTER the Japanese capitulation, truly left some serious tracks not to be easily forgotten.
