I had the unique opportunity to visit the United States Lines Archive at the American Merchant Marine Museum at Kings Point. There, I was able to view documents and photographs just as they were being cataloged and some in an unorganized state. This page lists some of the topics related to USL I explored and continue to research. I am still in the process of drawing a complete fleet list and sketching USL’s wartime activities – the company truly was unique and holds a key position in U.S. maritime history.
