I researched a couple of the Victory ships my father was on and found that most of these ships kept working long after WWII had ended as commercial vessels. One was scrapped in Taiwan in 1972. The other one survived 3 name changes and was finally scrapped in 1992, just 4 years before my Dad passed away.There are still a few of the smaller WWII aircraft carriers and other Navy ships at the Bremerton Naval Shipyard here in Washington state. They have all been decommissioned long ago, but it still makes me wonder about all the things they saw and did 63+ years ago. The "Mighty Mo" was moored here for many years. Being on the Pacific side of the USA Washington State has a long & proud Navy History that continues to this day. I have been out in a boat Salmon fishing in the strait of Juan de Fuca many times and let me tell you...it's quite a thrill to see a gigantic nuclear Submarine surface! The Naval Undersea Warfare station is here too, at Bangor.
