"[Mariners]
have written one of its most brilliant chapters. They have delivered the
goods when and where needed in every theater of operations and across
every ocean in the biggest, the most difficult and dangerous job ever
undertaken. As time goes on, there will be greater public understanding
of our merchant's fleet record during this war [World War II]."
