en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USAT_Thomas "According to U.S. Army service records of Private Leroy F Johnson who sailed on this voyage and served in Company E of the 27th Infantry Regiment, the Thomas sailed from San Francisco on October 16, 1919, and arrived in Vladivostok, Siberia, on November 11, 1919, with U.S. Army troops and supplies to support the American troops already in Siberia. The regiment departed Vladivostok 10 March 1920 aboard Thomas arriving at Manila on 17 March 1920." But that doesn't mean that there might not have been an earlier visit to Vladivostok.
