One of the largest passenger liners ever built, the Queen Mary made over 1,000 crossings of the Atlantic. During World War II, it was given the name, "Grey Ghost" when it was painted in camouflage and its portholes blacked out, and it began military transport. Servicing the war effort, it traveled more than 600,000 miles and carried over 800,000 troops. One historic journey to New York in May of 1943 included passenger Winston Churchill and 5,000 German prisoners of war.
