군수물자를 운송하기 위해 투입됐던 화물선 메러디스 빅토리(Meredith Victory)호의 레너드 라루(Leonard LaRue) 선장이 군수품을 항구에 내려놓고 1만4000여 피란민을 태워 경남 거제도까지 이송하는 장면은 영화 ‘국제시장’의 모티브가 돼 감동을 줬다.
The scene in which Leonard LaRue, the captain of the Meredith Victory, which was the cargo ship that was used to transport military supplies, dropped the munitions at the port and drove 14,000 refugees to Geoje Island in Southern Gyeongsang Province, was the motif of the movie "Kukje Market" and gave a sense of touch.
