ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

SS Peralta

Hello there little one! I'm going to explain to you what SS Peralta is.

SS Peralta is actually a type of ship that was used a long time ago for transportation and trade across the ocean. It's kind of like a really big, metal boat!

Now, this particular ship was named after a man named Rafael Peralta, who was a soldier in the United States Marine Corps. He was very brave and did some amazing things to protect his fellow soldiers.

So, when they named this ship after him, it was to honor his bravery and service to his country.

Unfortunately, the SS Peralta is no longer around, but it will always be remembered as a symbol of courage and dedication to duty.
