Klappentext
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. USS Colhoun (DD-85 / APD-2) was a Wickes-class destroyer in the United States Navy during World War I and as APD-2 in World War II. She was the first Navy ship named for Edmund Colhoun. Colhoun was launched 21 February 1918 by Fore River Shipbuilding Company, Quincy, Massachusetts, sponsored by Miss A. Colhoun, commissioned 13 June 1918, Commander B. B. Wygant in command, and reported to the United States Atlantic Fleet. From 30 June to 14 September 1918, Colhoun served as convoy escort between New York and European ports. On 10 November 1918, she reported to New London to conduct experiments with sound equipment then under development. On 1 January 1919, she rushed to assist the transport Northern Pacific which was stranded at Fire Island, carrying 194 of her returning troops to Hoboken, New Jersey.
