  • United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). 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. All errors and omissions are solely those of the author.

  • A Visual Guide to the Gato Class
    A VISUAL GUIDE TO THE U.S. FLEET SUBMARINES PART ONE: GATO CLASS (WITH A TAMBOR/GAR CLASS POSTSCRIPT) 1941-1945 BY DAVID L. JOHNSTON 2010 (revised June, 2010) A cursory review of photographs of the U.S. fleet submarines of World War II often leaves the reader with the impression that the boats were nearly identical in appearance. Indeed, the fleet boats from the Porpoise class all the way to the late war Tench class were all similar enough in appearance that it is easy to see how this impression is justified. However, a more detailed examination of the boats will reveal a bewildering array of differences, some of them quite distinct, that allow the separation of the boats into their respective classes. Ironically, the rapidly changing configuration of the boats’ appearances often makes it difficult to get down to a specific boat identification. However being familiar with all of the wartime changes will allow you to narrow down the date of the photo and when combined with other data will sometimes get you the specific name. The Gato class started construction on 11 September 1940 with the Drum at Portsmouth and ended on 01 March 1944 with the commissioning of the Hammerhead at Manitowoc. With a construction period spanning a time of tremendous change within the force, these boats were subjected to several distinct modifications to their outward appearance, with these configurations being distinct enough to allow their visual separation from the earlier Porpoise/Perch, Salmon/Sargo, and Tambor/Gar boats, and the later Balao and Tench classes.

  • April Slater Signals
    SLATER SIGNALS The Newsletter of the USS SLATER's Volunteers By Timothy C. Rizzuto, Executive Director Destroyer Escort Historical Museum USS Slater DE-766 PO Box 1926 Albany, NY 12201-1926 Phone (518) 431-1943, Fax 432-1123 Vol. 18 No. 4, April 2015 Our opening month kept our tour guides busy. School was out at the beginning of April for Easter and Spring Break, so we were pleased to welcome many families and students for the first nice days of spring. Despite a few chilly days, and even the occasional April snow flurry, the days were sunny more often than not. Our opening day included two special visits. Included in Alan Fox’s group was the family of the late Joseph G. Kaufmann, who served in the Coast Guard as a motormac aboard USS RAMSDEN DE-382, in WWII. After their father's death, the family arranged for Joe’s personal war memorabilia to be donated to the Museum. Despite the chaos going on in special collections with the restoration work, Dave Pitlyk had all their father’s memorabilia out for them to revisit. A second special guest was our former Board President and Trustee Emeritus, Frank Lasch. It was Frank’s birthday, and he insisted on being brought back to USS SLATER to celebrate. We will be forever indebted to Frank for the ten years he served as our first Albany Board President, and putting SLATER on the sound financial footing that continues to this day. A very pleasant surprise on opening day. Also during the month of April, Shanna Hopson completed her new tour guide training, and passed her evaluation with flying colors.
