I served on the ANTARES AKS 33 (NAMPA VICTORY). This brings back memories. I loved her...

Hi . Sailed on these ships for nearly five years 1966-1971 . My first ship as a cadet and the last one as second mate. Tough , fast ships , rode rough weather beautifully . Small but cosy cabins .The company , I worked for , India Steamship Co. Ltd . had five Victory ships . I sailed on three of them . When oil prices shot up in the 70s, their 40 metric tonnes consumption per day , made it unaffordable for the Company and they were sold off or scrapped(excellent steel). Nostalgic to revisit a Victory ship through your video . Thank You.

My dad served in the Navy on the USS Boulder Victory which hit a mine in the South Pacific and had to be scuttled. It was an ammunition ship. It was not crewed by MM, but USN personnel.

I filed the tanks on a small petrol tanker some thirty years after WW2. The officers told me the Japanese were cutting liberty ships and fitting tanker bodies. The engine and machinery were so good.

Nice video. Brings back memories of when my Dad was captain of the Greenville Victory.

I went there for a school field trip

Great video, looking forward to visiting the ship!

Hope to get there someday and get a tour ! Maybe even meet the Radioman (Dean) ! Thanks , Jerry Uhte K9UT
