Bringing Home the troops
General Harry Taylor made two "Magic Carpet" voyages to Marseilles and returned, carrying veterans of the European fighting. Next she sailed twice to Karachi, India, via the Suez Canal. Returning to New York 3 January 1946, the transport then began the first of four voyages to Bremerhaven, Germany, and Le Havre, France. She reached New York again 21 May 1946 and decommissioned 13 June at Baltimore.
