  • Art Siegel said:
    The two liners were sister ships.
    "For many years, SS St. Louis was prominent as a passenger liner between New York and Liverpool. 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."

    "Two complete United States Army field hospitals, which are to be attached to the Belgian Army, will be shipped to Europe on the American liner St. Louis today. With the hospitals will go four surgeons and twentyfour nurses. Each hospital is complete and the War Department was permitted by special act of Congress to turn them over to the Red Cross. "
