Artist's Description
Merchant Marine Act of 1936
The Merchant Marine Act of 1936, provided for establishment of Federal training for merchant marine officers. The U.S. Merchant Marine Cadet Corps was officially founded March 15, 1938 under the auspices of the U.S. Maritime Commission, chaired by Joseph P. Kennedy (father of President John F. Kennedy), a position taken over by Admiral Emory Scott Land.
In January 1942, the Maritime Commission purchased 10 acres on Coyote Point, San Francisco Bay, hastily built 11 buildings among the eucalyptus trees, and formally dedicated the facility on August 29th, 1942. In November 1944, 528 Cadet-Midshipmen were enrolled at San Mateo.
