Like many of its ilk, By Liesl Bradner the Lane Victory was named after an edu- cational institution: Lane College, in Ten- nessee. (Victory ships were also named for towns, cities, and United Nations member states.) And like most Victory ships, it was launched late in the war, on May 31, 1945. Within a month, the crew was carrying munitions and supplies across the Pacific. On a run to Guam, the ship spent 14 days in a typhoon. After the war, the Lane Victory carried Marshall Plan supplies to Europe. The 10,750-ton ship’s most dangerous mis- sion came during the Korean War.

  • Liberty Ships and Victory Ships, America's Lifeline in War
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Liberty Ships and Victory Ships, America's Lifeline in War Liberty Ships and Victory Ships, America's Lifeline in War (Courtesy U.S. Maritime Administration) The officers and men of the Merchant Marine, by their devotion to duty in the face of enemy action, as well as natural dangers of the sea, have brought us the tools to finish the job. Their contribution to final victory will be long remembered. --General Dwight D. Eisenhower on National Maritime Day, 1945¹ In the nearly 20 years following the end of the World War I, America's merchant fleet, including its cargo and passenger ships, was becoming obsolete and declining in numbers. A shipbuilding program began with the passage of the Merchant Marine Act of 1936. However, World War II provided the impetus to intensify those efforts eventually leading to a ship- building program that produced 5,500 vessels. Among them were 2,710 mass-produced ships known as Liberty ships. While reviewing blueprints of the Liberty ships at the White House, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who loved naval vessels and had an eye for design, mused aloud to Maritime Commission administrator Admiral Emory S. Land, "I think this ship will do us very well. She'll carry a good load. She isn't much to look at, though, is she? .A real ugly duckling."² Thus, the Liberty ships received their second nickname, "the ugly ducklings." 1 National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Liberty Ships and Victory Ships, America's Lifeline in War When the United States entered World War II at the end of 1941, it had the beginnings of a great merchant fleet.

    San Pedro Waterfront Project Recommendation from Staff Final Proposed Project Summary September 2009 San Pedro Waterfront Project Recommendation from Staff Final Proposed Project Summary September 2009 To: Board of Harbor Commissioners From: Executive Director and the San Pedro Waterfront Team Subject: SAN PEDRO WATERFRONT PROJECT The San Pedro Waterfront Project will be before you for consideration very soon. Staff has compiled this separate document to describe the project we are recommending that the Board consider in its certification of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR). As you consider the proposed Project and the Alternatives assessed in the Draft Environmental Statement (EIS)/EIR, it is hoped that this separate document will make it easier for the Board members and interested public to understand what staff is now recommending for Board consideration along with changes or conditions we recommend in response to public comments and our own further deliberations. This has not been an easy process. The project scoping and public input process was long and arduous with several starts since the “Waterfront Promenade & Interface Report” (WATCH Report) was published in May 2002. Then in 2006, we amended the proposed Project description, dropping the three hotels and extensive retail development because those elements of the Master Plan were for years fifteen and beyond. We then undertook another extensive scoping process that involved numerous follow-up meetings with those who commented on the revised Project description. We have reached out to regional stakeholders to educate them about the exciting potential for non-cargo related developments at the Port of Los Angeles and to seek their input.
