Re: marine falcon--liberty ship
My grandmother, Giovanina Ricciardi, arrived in New York from Italy aboard the SS Marine Falcon, in December 1947. I cannot remember the exact date, I believe it was around the last week of December. I do remember that the ship had difficulty entering the harbor because of a terrible snowstorm and my parents and my sister and I had to wait overnight in a parking lot near the port of entry for the ship to finally be able to enter the harbor. I hope this helps.
