In 1942, German U-boats were winning the Battle of the Atlantic. The Allies were losing ships faster than they could build them. The situation was desperate.
Then, an outsider—a dam builder named Henry J. Kaiser who had never built a ship in his life—made an impossible promise.
This is the incredible true story of how Kaiser defied centuries of tradition, ignored the experts, and applied automotive assembly-line techniques to shipbuilding. He hired a workforce of former secretaries, farmers, and housewives, taught them to weld in two weeks, and revolutionized an entire industry.
His methods shattered every record. While traditional yards took 8 months to build a ship, Kaiser's crews did it in 70 days... then 10 days... and then the unthinkable.
Join us as we explore the astounding construction of the SS Robert E. Peary, a 441-foot cargo vessel built from keel to launch in just 4 DAYS, 15 HOURS, and 29 MINUTES. This production miracle built 2,710 Liberty Ships, overwhelmed the Nazi war machine, and proved that the war would be won not just by soldiers, but by the factory.
