SS Taos Victory
From Our Contribution
Remarks
Little is known about this ship, the 73rd of the 272 of this design (EC2-S-AP2) constructed. She appears to have entered service with a voyage from San Pedro to Pearl Harbour, before spending the rest of 1945 and 46 in the Pacific.
Post WW2 Australian troops destined for Occupation roles in Japan gathered at Morotai. The main contingent of the 34th Australian Infantry Brigade, some 1000 men, embarked on SS Taos Victory on 15 Feb 1946, at Morotai, for the trip to Kure, Japan.
