SS Registan (1910) : ウィキペディア英語版 | SS Registan (1910)
''Registan'', built 1910, was the first name for a ship serving fifty years under the later names ''Guantanamo'', USS ''Guantanamo'' (ID-1637), ''Comerio'', ''Vittorin'', ''Grey Lag'' and finally ''Hai Lung'' until scrapping in 1960. The ship transported gunpowder and munitions during World War I as USS ''Guantanamo'' and as a cargo ship during World War II for the War Shipping Administration (WSA). After 12 October 1943 the ship was assigned to the Southwest Pacific Area command's permanent local fleet as the United States Army transport ''Grey Lag'' with that fleet's number X-101. In April 1945 she was one of the transports towing large barges from Australia and New Guinea to the Philippines after that concept to mitigate shipping shortages had been proven feasible. In 1946 the ship was sold to Republic of China and renamed ''Hai Lung''. ==Construction== The cargo ship ''Registan'' was built and launched 9 May 1910 by William Gray & Company Ltd., West Hartlepool, County Durham, United Kingdom with engines supplied by Central Marine Engine Works of the same city for Anglo-Algerian Steamship Co. (1896) Ltd., an operating line of the Frank C. Strick & Company. The ship was completed in July of that year. The Anglo-Algerian Steamship Co. had been founded to transport coal from South Wales to France and with the sister company, merged to form Strick Line in 1913, extended to serve Mediterranean ports and the Persian Gulf. This was the second ship of the name to operate for the company with five more to follow with the seventh built 1973.
