Here I was slamming the OTHER guy for not sticking to the topic, and didn't realize it was the SAME guy!

The book suggested by Sailor Steve (No. 4 above) -- which I'd seen listed elsewhere but was unfamiliar with the contents -- actually has a description of the colors used by the USN during WWI that, while somewhat general, will at least give me a running start on guessing at the colors in the black-and-white images of the ship in question.
The funny part is that I was dimly aware that there was some information out there, but not sure on the specifics. I just googled "ship camouflage world war one". It was actually the Wikipedia page on the subject that had the link to that book.
