Rock Creek Productions is creating a documentary on the ocean liner S.S. United States. Commissioned in 1952 she was considered the "Flagship of America" and the most advanced liner ever built. She set sail soon after the end of World War II at a time when our country was bound together by the tides of war. To this day she still holds the speed record for crossing the Atlantic. After 17 years of perfect service she was decommissioned and sadly sits rusting in the Philadelphia harbor awaiting her fate.

Our goal is to tell the story of this great ship through the eyes of those who built her, worked aboard her, traveled upon her, or have memories attached to her. It is a story of the culture, the times, the people, and the greatness of a nation put forth in the embodiment of one magnificent ship, the S.S. United States.
