3 unusual facts about SS Kościuszko


Kazimierz Ostrowski

In 1934 Ostrowski left for Gdynia where together with his brother Zygmunt he painted signs and names of ships (among others SS Kościuszko and MS Batory).

SS Kościuszko

During the German air raid on Denver, Norfolk, on 25 September, she was hit by two aerial bombs, but swift action by the crew prevented the ship from catching fire.

In 1949 she was withdrawn from service and was scrapped the following year in Blyth.
