  The East Oregonian, May 17, 1917, DAILY EVENING EDITION, Image 7 printed a similar photo with the caption: "THIS GUN OF THE ST. LOUIS FOUGHT A BATTLE WITH SUBMARINE". According to the referring text, it was a gun on the American liner St. Louis, which attacked a German submarine in St. George's channel. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_St._Louis_%281894%29 "On 17 March 1917, she was furnished an armed guard of 26 United States Navy sailors and armed with three 6-inch guns, to protect her from enemy attack as she continued her New York-to-Liverpool service."
