In Peace and War Since 1775
During World War II, as they did since the American Revolution, Merchant Mariners "delivered the goods" to every front.
"But once the war was won, what the bureaucrats in Washington did to the merchant mariners was reprehensible. They treated them like second-class citizens, and worse."
