Hello all,
I'm looking for information about the S.S. Georgic on which my mate's dad sailed on as a soldier from Liverpool to India during the Second World War. I believe it's the Cunard/White Star Line ship that saw service between 1934 and 1956 before being scrapped.
I thought it would be a nice idea to find a picture of this ship for his dad as he talks about it quite often. His health is not the best at 78, having recently undergone heart ops and strokes and his eyesight is failing by the day but he is so lucid in his memories. His mind is as strong as it always was but his body is letting him down.
It would be nice if he could see a picture of the ship he has such fond memories of just one more time. I think it's the Cunard liner but he did say that it sailed out of Liverpool, the journey took about 4 weeks, was 28,000 tons and that it had been raised from a previous sinking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Boz
