From the May 29, 2012, Pinde Patch "World War II Ship Gets Blue Star from El Cerrito Garden Club" by Charles Burress.
The marker was set in stone next to the SS Red Oak Victory in Richmond, California. It was built by the Kaiser Shipyards in Richmond during the war and is in the process of being restored.
The Blue Star Memorial Program is a long-standing project of the National Garden Clubs dating to World War II to honor veterans.
