== Service history ==
From 27 August 1920 to 11 August 1923, ''Gilmer'' made two round trip transatlantic voyages out of New York to European and Mediterranean ports.〔 ''Gilmer'' was damaged in a storm in the Adriatic Sea in November 1920. She struck a submerged object 3 February 1921 and was forced to enter dry dock in Pola, Italy (now Pula, Croatia) for repairs to her starboard propeller and shaft.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The Hobart Sampson Butcher Photo Collection )〕 She subsequently engaged in training exercises along the Eastern seaboard, in the Caribbean, and out of West Coast ports until 1938. This varied duty was highlighted by a cruise to Nicaragua in 1926 to protect American lives and property during the guerrilla war led by Augusto César Sandino, an escort voyage to Havana guarding President Calvin Coolidge in in 1928, and disaster relief work in the Caribbean during the same year.〔
Decommissioned at Philadelphia 31 August 1938, ''Gilmer'' recommissioned 25 September 1939 following the outbreak of World War II and was assigned as flagship of Destroyer Squadron 30 in the Atlantic Squadron. She was part of the Thirteenth Naval District in 1940. She conducted patrols and exercises in the Atlantic and Caribbean until reaching San Diego 4 November 1940 and continued these duties along the Pacific coast until the United States entered the war.〔
