Description SS Vaterland interned at their piers at Hoboken, New Jersey, on 4 April 1917, two days before the United States declared war on Germany. In the foreground is the stern of a U.S. Navy destroyer, which is keeping watch on the ships. The piers are those of the Hamburg-America Line (left center) and the North German Lloyd Line (right center). The large ship at left is SS Vaterland. The four-funneled liner in right center is probably SS Kaiser Wilhelm II (later USS Agamemnon [ID-3004]).
