Liberty ships were built during World War II. These ships allowed for the ability to get war materials to United States soldiers stationed in the Soviet Union and Britain. These ships could be built quickly for this purpose.

Why you need pilots on ships?

If you're referring to military ships, they house airplanes and helicopters (kind of like a mobile airport) where pilots need to be alert in case there is an incoming threat that they need to immediately take off for. Also, for non-emergency cases where they are just patrolling areas or borders.

How did the United States mobilize a strong military during world war 1?

The US mobilized a strong military by getting strong military leaders, and by having the goods needed for the war. Initially, the United States was only prepared in the sense of the Selective Service Act and the Lend-Lease Acts. After the attack on the Navy and Army in Hawaii, military intelligence realized some of the problems in the sharing of communication. That's probably among the 1st things that happened. Economic activity took a complete 180. Due to the sudden demand and need for war materials, food, weapons, tanks, planes, munitions, ships...companies contracted to produce war materials where in need of employees to meet and surpass Gov't quotas so companies (along with laws passed by the Congress) where hiring women, blacks, Hispanics, the elderly, etc. The need for manpower both in the Military and supply-side really boosted US Military production. The production just kept expanding throughout the War, and despite the down points during the heaviest periods of fighting, the materials production just kept moving. An example of the the materials production is the rates of building for Willys MB (aka the Jeep). 647,000 where made between 1941-45, most being made my Ford, at a rate of roughly 4.5/day.
