one little problem: the article says the ship was unarmed! if the drawing is of later base, the flag should be on the correct boom :D

Lovely story and a very fine drawing.
One remark is, and as Acelancelot said, if the ship was un-armed (as mentioned in the article), why did you draw her with guns?

True. I've updated the drawing.

As far as I understand this incident happened before she was armed; and the drawing shows the later version.

Really nice drawing are you going to do a regular Type C2 hull?

Merchant ships of the MARAD program are on my list.

The ship you link to the Alcoa Cruiser was not a regular C-2, as she was shorter and was a private design realy that the MARAD took over.
