Our cabin, 111, was the fifth set of portholes back from the bow in the area painted white. I find it amazing that it was the last part of the ship to disappear. Don't forget to check out my SS American Star vids here on YouTube.

Excellent ! Many thanks for posting. My late Grandad spent a few months aboard her, late `41 early `42. Sadly, I`ve never managed to get over there to see the wreck
From the people of USA, thanks for such a moving video and tribute to a once beautiful, proud ship and the sailors and soldiers who sailed on her. We are loosing our WWII veterans at about 1500 a day. Thank God for the men of the greatest gereration.
What is the hymn used in this video?

@Lynxboy252 We have used "The Navy Hymn - Eternal Father ...", you can read it at the end of the video.
