USS Randwijk
(ID # 2546)

Shown flying the American flag, possibly after being taken over at Key West in April 1918. This Dutch freighter, built in 1912, was commissioned on 2 April 1918 but was decommissioned and turned over to the Shipping Board at Baltimore on 23 April 1918. She was then probably operated by the Shipping Board until returned to her Dutch owners circa early 1919.
