Chester Pennsylvania The war achievements of the American Red Cross were again accorded official recognition when a 9000 ton merchant ship was launched at the yard of the Merchant Shipbuilding Corp. Amcross is the cable code address of the ARC. Acclaimed by the cheers of the men who built her, the Amcross takes the water cleanly.
