USS Edmonds (DE-406)
USS Edmonds (DE-406) was a ''John C. Butler''-class destroyer escort acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War II. The primary purpose of the destroyer escort was to escort and protect ships in convoy, in addition to other tasks as assigned, such as patrol or radar picket. At the end of World War II, she returned home proudly with five battle stars to her credit. When the Korean War started, she was recommissioned and, at that war's end, she returned home with two more battle stars.
She was named in honor of Aviation Ordnanceman First Class Bert C. Edmonds who was posthumously awarded the Silver Star Medal for his heroism while serving with Torpedo Squadron 8 in the Solomons. She was launched 17 December 1943 by Brown Shipbuilding Co., Houston, Texas; sponsored by Mrs. F. Campbell, mother of Aviation Ordnanceman Edmonds; and commissioned 3 April 1944, Lieutenant Commander C. S. Barker, Jr., in command.
