A donkey is lowered down the side of the Gerusalemme

Beneath the painted name Gerusalemme on the white bow, a donkey hangs in a canvas sling from the ship's tackle, its legs dangling, and sinks slowly toward the quay; men in caps and headcloths wait below, and an oil tank and a shed stand beyond the harbour. The source speaks of donkeys unloaded for army use. In the hill country, where lorries could not go, the British Army relied on pack animals.
