Jeff, I got you down y friend. I really gotta get an Arleigh Burke. Maybe Santa will bring me one
Now just head over to the "Member Group Build" section and start a thread under the "Modelcrazy's Ships of the American Flag Group Build" when you're ready

Re: Ships of the American Flag GB feeler
I think I know what kit I'd like to do - Queen Mary. But here's my dilemma.... I'd like to build her as the famous "Grey Ghost" as she was during WW2. Are there any modifications I need to do to make her as The Grey Ghost? I'm assuming to simply paint her grey overall instead of her standard color similar to the Titanic. Any advice or tips will be appreciated.

Re: Ships of the American Flag GB feeler
To show Queen Mary in her WWII troopship fit, you will need to add an armament fit as well. But being a Cunard liner, I think she still sailed under the White Ensign in WWII, and not the Stars & Stripes.

Great info Stik, you always come up with the best links.
Black Sheep, Stik is right, she flew the Jack. Sorry my friend.
Revell makes a 1/600 SS United States. and while she never was never called upon to serve, she was built as a dual purpose troop ship encase the need arose.
