In 1942, traditional shipbuilders said it took 6 months to build a cargo vessel. Henry Kaiser and a workforce of farmers and housewives did it in 4 days, 15 hours, and 29 minutes. This is the incredible story of the SS Robert E. Peary.
The Liberty Ship program was the industrial miracle that won World War II. While German U-Boats were sinking ships faster than they could be replaced, American shipyards in Richmond, California, revolutionized manufacturing. Using pre-fabrication, welding instead of riveting, and an untrained workforce including thousands of women (Rosie the Riveters), they shattered every record in maritime history.
In this documentary, we dive into the timeline, the techniques, and the sheer willpower that allowed the SS Robert E. Peary to slide into the San Francisco Bay in less than a week.
