I was a painter in the shipyards in Portland during the Vietnam war. We had a ship called the Gaffney in that was a transport ship in for overhaul. I believe it was used in WW11 as a transport ship. When working in the bilges, I removed a strainer and found a black hunk of iron that had one time been a Vicory model someone had hid there years ago.
