the liberty cargo ship from ww2 with it's low tech steam power
chugged around delivering well needed cargo to keep the armies well supplied with food medical equipment and ammo

nice shots

Wow!  :o

It's unbelievable that one of those could be built, and ready for sea in three days. Thats 72 hours to build an ocean going cargo ship.

It was the strategy to built more ships than the german submarines could sink.....

Hm, what we need next is a type VII boat...or better, a type XXI one.  :D

Yeah, it kinda is unbelievable. It would take me 3 days to mount the compass and the steering pedestal. I wonder how many guys were riveted in behind bulkheads never to be seen again!
