- The Alfhem was a Swedish flag vessel that became famous when she was used to transport a large quantity of Czechoslovak arms and ammunition to the Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán government of Guatemala in May 1954. The weapons had been loaded onto the Alfhem in the Baltic port of Szczecin, Poland. The ship then followed a zig-zag course sailing first towards Dakar in French West Africa, then heading for Curaçao, later being re-directed to Puerto Cortes, Honduras, until finally a radio message to the captain revealed her true destination to be Puerto Barrios in Guatemala. She eventually docked in Guatemala at Puerto Barrios, 297 kilometers northwest of Guatemala City, on 15 May 1954.
