Earl Grey on VATERLAND (LOC)

VATERLAND -- Hoboken, 12/11/14 (LOC)

    poor Vaterland, barely in service and then lost. She was not a much loved ship though she had a long and generally successful career after the war with the US as as SS Leviathan

LEVIATHAN (LOC)

  • Richard Norton said:
    SS Leviathan, originally built as the Vaterland, was an ocean liner which regularly crossed the North Atlantic from 1914 to 1934. The second of three sister ships built for Germany's Hamburg America Line for their transatlantic passenger service, she sailed as the Vaterland for less than a year before her early career was halted by the start of World War I. In 1917, she was seized by the U.S. government and renamed Leviathan. She would become known by this name for the majority of her career, both as a troopship during World War I and later as the flagship of the United States Lines. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Leviathan
