USS Gosselin (APD-126)
USS ''Gosselin'' (DE-710/APD-126) was a of the United States Navy, named after Ensign Edward W. Gosselin (1917–1941), who was killed in action during the attack on Pearl Harbor.
''Gosselin'' was laid down at the Defoe Shipbuilding Company, Bay City, Michigan and partially completed as a with the hull number DE-710. ''Gosselin'' was launched on 17 February 1944, sponsored by Mrs. E. N. Gosselin, mother of Ensign Gosselin. On 17 July 1944, the Navy decided that ''Gosselin'' would be completed as a ''Crosley''-class high speed transport, with the designation APD-126. Since she was so near to completion, Defoe completed her as a destroyer escort, and then when she reached New Orleans prior to commissioning, she was converted in a shipyard to the APD configuration. She was commissioned on 31 December 1944, with Lieutenant Commander Joseph B. Fyffe in command.
