High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! SS Mayaguez was a U.S. container ship that attained notoriety for its 12 May 1975 seizure by Khmer Rouge forces of Cambodia, which resulted in a confrontation with the United States at the close of the Vietnam War. The Mayaguez was first launched in April 1944 as SS White Falcon, a C2-S-AJ1 (U.S. Maritime Commission) built by North Carolina Shipbuilding Company of Wilmington, NC. Its sister ship was the SS Ponce. After World War II, she was renamed the Santa Eliana. In 1960, she was lengthened and widened by the Maryland Shipbuilding and Drydock Company and converted into the first U.S.-flagged, all-container ship devoted to foreign trade, with a capacity of 382 containers below-deck plus 94 on-deck. She was renamed SS Sea in 1964, and SS Mayaguez in 1965.
