The ship was moored by being filled with concrete in order to protect the ships approaching the open areas on October 26, 1915. A generator was installed on the ship’s deck and the shore was lightened up with searchlights. The ship, which was used for this mission until the end of the war, was sunk during the withdrawal of the allied navy. Today, although the S.S. Milo has been destroyed to a large extent, is still in good condition.
