Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States.

  • From the USS Chattanooga to the USS Mahan: U.S
    From the USS Chattanooga to the USS Mahan: U.S. Navy Ship Visits to Tallinn When the guided missile destroyer USS Mahan (DDG-72) arrives in Tallinn harbor before Estonia's Victory Day celebrations, it will be the latest in a long line of U.S. Navy ships to drop anchor in Estonia. This USS Mahan is the fifth U.S. Navy ship to carry the name of Rear Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840-1914), a noted U.S. naval historian and theorist. The U.S. Navy launched the first destroyer named the USS Mahan (DD-102) towards the end of the Great War on August 4, 1918 before being commissioned on October 24, 1918. Just a year later in early November 1919, the light cruiser USS Chattanooga (C-16) – one of the USS Mahan's contemporary vessels – became the first U.S. Navy ship to pay an official visit to the new Republic of Estonia. At the time, the USS Chattanooga served as the flagship of U.S. Naval Forces in European waters. This USS Chattanooga was the second ship of the same name: the original USS Chattanooga was a steamboat built in 1863 at the height of the U.S. Civil War (1861-1865) in order to re-supply General Ulysses S. Grant's hungry army in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The newer USS Chattanooga was also performing a delivery of sorts: its mission was to make sure that U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander John A. Gade (then on loan to the U.S. Department of State) made it to his new assignment as the first U.S.

  • Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The current and planned size and composition of the Navy, the annual rate of Navy ship procurement, the prospective affordability of the Navy’s shipbuilding plans, and the capacity of the U.S. shipbuilding industry to execute the Navy’s shipbuilding plans have been oversight matters for the congressional defense committees for many years. In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that calls for achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-ship goal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Navy and the Department of Defense (DOD) have been working since 2019 to develop a successor for the 355-ship force-level goal. The new goal is expected to introduce a new, more distributed fleet architecture featuring a smaller proportion of larger ships, a larger proportion of smaller ships, and a new third tier of large unmanned vehicles (UVs). On June 17, 2021, the Navy released a long-range Navy shipbuilding document that presents the Biden Administration’s emerging successor to the 355-ship force-level goal. The document calls for a Navy with a more distributed fleet architecture, including 321 to 372 manned ships and 77 to 140 large UVs. A September 2021 Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report estimates that the fleet envisioned in the document would cost an average of between $25.3 billion and $32.7 billion per year in constant FY2021 dollars to procure.
