Hi Ted, Bonjour Yves, Hello everybody, I didn't know it was a only French nickname. On Mariners' site you've a comprehensive list of Liberty ship. French government got through several means some 90 liberty ships by the end of war. In the files I've their first name (as PERSIAN KNOT, GEORGE N. DERN and others) but they do not appear in this site list. To tell everything, late Mr Lecoeur, from the Musée Maritime and Portuaire in Le Havre, has written a data base of all French-flagged merchant marine ships since 1850 (more than 12.000). I've started to shift these files onto Access and I surf to find links and more information ship by ship.

Hi Gildas, Thanks for your reply. I have this information, but do you have a list of names? This will make it a lot easier to extract the right ships from my listings.
