SS John W. Brown.
The SS. John W. Brown was a EC2-S-C1 Type Liberty Ship, originally launched on September 7, 1942 at
Bethlehem-Fairfield Shipyard, Baltimore, MD was a WWII support vessel.
"Designed as cheap and quickly built cargo steamers, the Liberty ships formed the backbone of a massive sealift of
troops, arms, material and ordnance to every theater of war. Two-thirds of all the cargo that left the United States
during the war was shipped in Liberty ships. Two hundred of them were lost, either to enemy action or to a range of
maritime mishaps such as collision, grounding, fire or sea, but there were simply so many of them that the enemy
could never hope to sink enough Liberty ships to close the sea lanes, and the supplies got through."
Description:
Length: 441 feet, 6 inches
Beam: 57 feet
Draft: 27 feet, 9 inches
Displacement: 14,245 tons
Gross: 7,176 tons
Capacity: 8,500 long tons
Armament: Three 3-inch/50 caliber guns; one 5-inch/38 caliber gun; eight 20mm guns.
The S.S. JOHN W. BROWN looks now almost exactly as she did toward the end of World War II. Despite her grey paint and
many guns, she is not a warship but rather a merchant ship. The BROWN was built by the government and was under the
control of the War Shipping Administration. This ship and her many sisters were operated under what was known as a
general agency agreement, by almost 90 different American steamship companies, which were paid by Uncle Sam to
manage the ships. The cargo they carried and the ports they visited were entirely controlled by the government.
