SS Stephen Hopkins Chapter Mission
The mission of the SS Stephen Hopkins is to get a copy of our World War II memory book, Maritime Tales of the Sea, in every school and library so future generations will have an understanding of what the WWII merchant mariners' role was to help win the 2nd World War. Maritime Tales of the Sea
We have also reproduced the unforgettable picture story of the U.S. Maritime Service Training Station at Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn during World War II. This 40-page booklet contains more than 160 photographs that illustrate the intensive training merchant seamen had to undergo. To order click on this pdf: USMerchantMarineSheepsheadBaybooklet.pdf
