  Presumably en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Washington_(BB-47)
  as seen recently in the Bain stream:

• Christopher Cavas said:

  This is not the battleship BB 47, which was never completed and never entered service. More likely this is the troop transport USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (ID 3018), the former German passenger liner of that name seized by the US in April 1917. Commissioned by the US Navy in September 1917, she carried President Wilson to France in December 1918 for the Versailles conference. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_George_Washington

• Barbara (LOC P&P) said:

  Thanks for the information on the USS George Washington. Comparing to another photo known to have been taken inside the USS George Washington, we haven't been able to make a definitive match, but we can add to the description to suggest it as a possibility.
