USS Huron (ID-1408)
USS ''Huron'' (ID-1408) was a United States Navy transport ship during World War I. She was formerly the Norddeutscher Lloyd liner SS ''Friedrich der Grosse'' (or ''Friedrich der Große'') built in 1896, which sailed Atlantic routes from Germany and sometimes Italy to the United States and on the post run to Australia. At the outset of World War I the ship was interned by the U.S. and, when that country entered the conflict in 1917, was seized and converted to a troop transport.
Originally commissioned as USS ''Fredrick Der Grosse'', the ship was renamed ''Huron'' — after Lake Huron, the center lake of the Great Lakes — while undergoing repairs and conversion at a U.S. Navy yard. The ship carried almost 21,000 men to France during the hostilities, and returned over 22,000 healthy and wounded men after the Armistice.〔〔Gleaves, p. 247〕
After decommissioning by the U.S. Navy, the ship was turned over to the United States Shipping Board and was later transferred to the United States Mail Steamship Company, for whom she sailed in the Atlantic as SS ''Huron''. In May 1922 the ship was allocated to the Los Angeles Steamship Co. and renamed SS ''City of Honolulu''. The ship caught fire on 12 October 1922 during her maiden voyage, and sank with no loss of life.
