Come hear the harrowing tales at sea of our most neglected veterans of WW II.

The Merchant Marine sailed the cargo ships that delivered the much needed war supplies to our troops.

Any military historian will tell you that without the Merchant Marine, victory would’ve eluded the U.S. in WW II.

Because of their mission, they came under relentless attack from U-Boats and bomber planes.

Camden County College, Blackwood, N.J., Monday, March 23rd, Free.  See College website for info. 

Flyer attached for more info.
