Cunard liner RMS Mauretania in her wartime role as a troopship. Built by Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson of Wallsend on the River Tyne, she was launched in 1906, and took the coveted Blue Riband in September 1909. She served as a troopship during World War 1, and received this spectacular 'dazzle camouflage' scheme in 1918.
