Default Information Request: Liberty Ships and Similar Merchantmen

Hey lads,

I have a mate in naval engineering who is currently preparing a research paper and took an interest in the Liberty ships and merchant shipping of the WWII period. Are there are any resources you would recommend for him? I, sadly, am not as up to date on the targets as I am the weapons.

Look at the allied merchant navy link at the bottom of the page.

At the bottom of each page is a link to the next part.
