Liberty ships

Liberty ships were large cargo vessels built during World War II to transport supplies and troops. Designed for speed and efficiency, they could be produced quickly and at a low cost, using standardized parts. These ships played a crucial role in supporting Allied forces by delivering essential goods across the oceans. Despite being basic in design, their sturdiness allowed them to withstand harsh conditions. Over 2,700 Liberty ships were constructed, making them a symbol of wartime industrial effort and an important factor in the success of the Allies in the conflict.
