Jeremiah O'Brien is a
product of an emergency shipbuilding program that
resulted in more than 2,700
Liberty ships. Jeremiah O'Brien made wartime voyages
between the east coast, Canada, and the United
Kingdom, to South America, Australia, and the
Philippines. From June to December 1944, O'Brien
made 11 trips between the United Kingdom and
Normandy in support of the D-Day invasion.
O'Brien is
currently open to the public and makes
memorial cruises annually in May and October. In 1994, Jeremiah O'Brien
gained world attention when she steamed back to the
Normandy invasion beaches to participate in
ceremonies marking the 50th anniversary of D-Day --
the only U.S. veteran D-Day ship present.
Jeremiah O'Brien
is the last unaltered Liberty ship.
