Mrchntmarine
Interstingly, the article states the ship was US owned. Dont know if I had forgotten that or not, but i thought it was British. Probably bc if flew the British flag
It's a little complicated. The ship was owned by and flew the flag of the White Star Line, which was a British Company. That company in turn, along with a group of other shipping companies;was controlled by a conglomerate called International Mercantile Marine Company. That was a Trust run by J.P. Morgan.
