SS Solomon Juneau

SS Solomon Juneau (MC hull number 709) was a Liberty ship built in the United States during World War II. Named after Solomon Juneau, one of the founders and the first mayor of Milwaukee, the ship was laid down by California Shipbuilding Corporation at Terminal Island in Los Angeles, and launched on 6 February 1943. It was operated by Weyerhaeuser Steamship Company.

While in the Mediterranean, the SS Solomon Juneau shot down five enemy German aircraft. A German submarine torpedoed the ship in April 1945, blowing two soldiers overboard who were never found. The ship was repaired. Seventeen years later, in 1962, it was scrapped at Panama City, Florida.
