I am trying to determine the drydock that held the American freighter Admiral Y.S. Williams just before the Japanese invasion in December 1941.

I assume this means the HK & Whampoa dockyard, but maybe the Cosmopolitan dockyard had a drydock large enough to take the Admiral Williams? Does anyone know which drydocks in Kowloon could hold a ship of this size? <Read more ...>
