The 100th Anniversary of the end of World War I the Marshall Islands issued two MS with dazzle-painted ships, the $1.25 stamps shows the British passenger ship OLYMPIC.

She is also depicted in the margin of the sheet, which shows her arriving in Halifax on 14 December 1918 with returned Canadian soldiers.
