I'm of the belief she never went into the Mediterranean.

Not a freighter but I've just read that she was in fact armed (not an armed merchant) and did actually serve in the country of her builders navy.....sorry

Not a freighter but armed. That makes me want to call it a converted passenger ship as a troop transport. Is it a troop transport?

Not a troop transport.

Is it an American ship?

Jimbuna · 02-27-21, 06:38 AM

Just to recap after my unforgiveable bout of stupidity.

A ship

Not British

An armed warship

No connection with the Mediterranean (as far as I'm aware)

Not a freighter, troop transport or armed merchant

Crossed posts.

Yes she is American and well known in maritime circles I believe.

Neither but the ship in question does start 'USS' and Kroonland is headed in the right direction.

CLUE: There was a fictional book written about her.
