USAT Edellyn (U.S. Army Transport, 1919)
In port, while employed to carry members of the Czech Legion to Europe from the Russian Far East, circa 1919-1920.
Note the name board on the side of the ship's bridge, with her name clearly spelled "Edellyn". Many sources use the spelling "Eddelyn", however. She briefly served in the U.S. Navy in 1919, prior to becoming an Army transport.
