There's been a bunch of News about the Pier 45 warehouse fire and the Liberty ship. No news on the Pampanito and its status. I believe the Pampanito was berthed in front of the Liberty ship. ------------- Any distance of place or lapse of time can lesson the friendship of those persuaded of each others worth - Robert Southey |

"The fire was contained to this area and did not damage the USS Pampanito or our offices on Pier 45, Shed A. The SS Jeremiah O’Brien was saved, too." |

I saw this photo of the Jeremiah O'Brien (posted on their Facebook page). The fire looked really bad.  |

They were able to get a tug to help pull the O'BRIEN (not the oldest operating Liberty Ship.. the SS JOHN W BROWN is older by about 9 months) off the dock relatively quickly.
