Her indirect tie to the Sixth boro?

ATLANTIC SALVOR towed her from Norfolk, VA to NISMF Philiadelphia arriving 22MAR2008

We went to Texas City to load oil for Bremen, Germany. Crossing the Atlantic the “United States” passed us again East bound.

We met the “Queen Elizabeth” West bound.

Now just memories.

Thanks Will.
