USS Dewey (DD-349) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Dewey (DD-349)
The first USS ''Dewey'' (DD-349) was a ''Farragut''-class destroyer of the United States Navy, launched in 1934 and named for Admiral George Dewey. ''Dewey'' served in the Pacific through World War II. After escaping damage during the attack on Pearl Harbor, ''Dewey'' screened the aircraft carrier until the carrier was lost in the battle of the Coral Sea; then screened through the invasion of Guadalcanal and the battle of the Eastern Solomons. Following overhaul in San Francisco, ''Dewey'' spent 1943 in Alaskan waters supporting the invasions of Attu and Kiska. ''Dewey'' spent 1944 supporting raids in the Marshalls, Carolines, and Marianas, including screening carriers during the battle of the Philippine Sea. After being damaged by Typhoon Cobra during the recapture of the Philippines, ''Dewey'' supported the invasion of Iwo Jima and spent the remainder of the war screening replenishment oilers. ==History== ''Dewey'' was launched 28 July 1934 by Bath Iron Works, Bath, Maine; sponsored by Miss A. M. Dewey, great-grandniece of Admiral Dewey; and commissioned 4 October 1934, Commander H. W. Hill in command. After two training cruises to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and Port-au-Prince, Haiti, ''Dewey'' sailed from Norfolk, Virginia, 1 April 1935 for San Diego, California, arriving 14 April. Until 1938 she operated principally from this port on local operations as well as engaging in fleet tactics, battle practice, and scheduled exercises. She cruised along the West Coast as far north as Alaska and as far south as Callao, Peru, and made three cruises to the Hawaiian area. From 4 January to 12 April 1939 she returned to the Atlantic for a fleet problem. ''Dewey'' arrived at Pearl Harbor 12 October 1939 and participated in tactical exercises, battle practice, fleet problems, and maneuvers until 1941.
