Brown was launched in 1942 and to this day remains one of only two Liberty ships afloat. The ship was named after a labor union activist, and its eventful history includes participation in 13 key wartime voyages, including the Anzio landings and Operation Dragoon – the Allied invasion of southern France in August 1944. The crew of the ship was also responsible for shooting down enemy aircraft during the fighting in Operation Dragoon. After the war, the S.S John W. Brown served as a transport ship in the reconstruction of Europe, and from 1946 became a floating nautical school for New York City, preparing youth for service in the Merchant Marine and the US Navy.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/350\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry: United States of America\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod: World War II, post-war era\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNumber of parts: 349 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembled dimensions: length 384.3 mm, width 50.2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAdd-ons: detailed deck and superstructure features\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembly kit, category: plastic ship model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembly instructions: clear, with detailed illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho do we recommend Trumpeter 05308 S.S JOHN W BROWN for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend this model both for experienced modeling enthusiasts and intermediate modelers interested in World War II naval topics.
