Steaming the World War II and D-Day Normandy Invasion veteran, Liberty Ship "S.S. Jeremiah O'Brien", from the Mare Island drydock at the former Mare Island Naval Shipyard, in Vallejo, California.
We arrived the night before and spent the night on the ship, listening to the steam coursing through the ships' "veins". The next morning they began flooding the drydock at 0700 hours. Once the drydock was fully flooded, and the cason towed away, the main engine was warmed through and we got under way en route to her berth at Pier 45 in San Francisco, California.
A VERY big thank you to volunteers Devin Montalbano and Seth Adams for making this amazing opportunity available to us.
