  1. Congratulations on an accurate explanation of the career of the Empire Windrush. She, along with many others, was operated by the Ministry of Shipping, (formed in October 1939) which adopted a standard naming system, applying the prefix "Empire" for all merchant ships built in Great Britain for the Government. This later was named the Ministry of War Transport. With some exceptions, the prefix was also extended to purchased or requisitioned ships and to those acquired as prizes, such as the Empire Windrush. Actual dat to day operations of these ships was, of course, placed in the hands of a host of commercial shipping companies. Doubtless, you may expect a backlash from the usual people.
