To all interested veterans;

The annual cruise to honor veterans will be on the 6th of November. Information can be found at www.ProjectLibertyShip.com and reservations (which are needed) can be made at 410-558-0164.
The John Brown is a W.W.II Liberty ship built in Baltimore during the war. It is powered by a 2500HP triple expansion reciprocating steam engine. All auxiliary machinery is powered by reciprocating steam engines. Besides the engine room tours, food and entertainment are provided.
There are only 2 of these ships left afloat, 1 in California and the other is the Brown. Besides the machinery, the old timers who operate and crew the ship are very interesting people to talk to.
