Monday, July 28, 2008

The Department of Transportation announced that the last of America’s famous Liberty ships, the Arthur M. Huddell, will be towed from the James River Reserve Fleet site at Fort Eustis, Va., to Norfolk, on July 28, to prepare the World War II-era vessel for a cross-Atlantic tow to its new homeport in Greece. Greek officials say the ship will become a merchant marine museum of that nation’s shipping industry.
