John Nill Troxell, arrived in Liverpool in October of 1917. He was scheduled to sail from America on the HMS Otronto (which ran aground and sunk in northern England) but was put on the next ship after the Otronto sailed from America. How can I find the name of his troop ship?
Thanks for your good work, Richard Troxell

Thanks so much for your service. I’m glad to hear I could be of help. If you need any specific source citations please let me know & I will get them to you. Some of the sources on the Bibliography Page were hard to track down.

Best Regards,
Rich

I would hope that people not only get information from it, but also an understanding of war.
