The SS John W. Brown, a celebrated Liberty ship, played a significant role during World War II, making 13 crucial voyages to the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean. Notably, she participated in the Anzio landings and was part of the southern France invasion force during Operation Dragoon in August 1944. The ship's US Navy Armed Guard gunners distinguished themselves by shooting down an enemy aircraft during this operation. Post-war, the John W. Brown contributed to rebuilding efforts in war-torn Europe and repatriated American troops.
