List of Liberty ships (Je–L)
This is a partial list of Liberty ships, specifically those whose names begin with the letters "Je" through "L." Liberty ships were cargo ships built in the United States during World War II under the Emergency Shipbuilding Program. They were designed to be simple, inexpensive, and quick to construct, becoming a vital component of the Allied war effort by transporting supplies and troops.
Each entry typically includes the ship's name, Maritime Commission (MC) hull number, launch date, fate (e.g., sunk, scrapped, preserved), and any notable incidents or historical significance.
This listing serves as a reference for researchers, historians, and maritime enthusiasts interested in the history and characteristics of these iconic vessels. Due to the large number of Liberty ships built, the full list is often broken down alphabetically for easier navigation. This section covers ships from the beginning of "Je" up to the end of "L." Individual entries for each ship can often be found elsewhere with more detailed information.
