USS Albany (CA-123)
USS ''Albany'' (CA-123) was a United States Navy ''Oregon City''-class heavy cruiser, later converted to the guided missile cruiser CG-10. The converted cruiser was the lead ship of the new Albany guided missile cruiser class. She was the fourth ship to carry the name ''Albany''.
The ship was laid down on 6 March 1944 at Quincy, Massachusetts, by the Bethlehem Steel Company, launched on 30 June 1945, sponsored by Mrs. Elizabeth F. Pinckney, and commissioned on 15 June 1946 at the Boston Navy Yard, Captain Harold A. Carlisle in command.
==Service history==
Following outfitting and a shakedown cruise in the vicinity of Casco Bay, Maine, ''Albany'' began operations along the east coast of the United States punctuated with cruises to the West Indies. During the ensuing months, the cruiser made a number of voyages for the purpose of training naval reservists and NROTC midshipmen. ''Albany'' continued to perform such duty until 11 September 1948, when she stood out of Chesapeake Bay for her first tour of duty with the American naval forces operating in the Mediterranean Sea, recently made a permanent establishment as the 6th Fleet. That deployment set the tone for the next decade. The cruiser alternated five assignments to the 6th Fleet with operations along the east coast of the United States and in the West Indies and made three cruises to South American ports. During one of the South American voyages, ''Albany'' carried the official United States representative to the inauguration of the President of Brazil in January 1951.〔Stefan Terzibaschitsch: ''Kreuzer der U.S. Navy''. Koehler, Herford 1984. p. 242 ISBN 3-7822-0348-8〕
For two years, stretching at least until the autumn of 1955, ''Albany'' served as flagship for Commander, Battleship-Cruiser Force, Atlantic.〔John B. Hattendorf, Adm Richard G. Colbert: Pioneer in Building Global Maritime Partnerships, Naval War College Review, Summer 2008, Vol. 61, No. 3, 115.〕
