World War I
The Ellerman Hall's ss CITY OF CAIRO served in two world wars. Not much is known about her early service during World War I. However, towards the end of the war she was used as a troop transport ship.
Some photos shown below record the CITY OF CAIRO as a troopship transporting Australian and New Zealand troops back to Sydney, Australia in 1919.
I am indebted to Tony Jones at Rhiw.com who sent me the troopship photos.
