USS James C. Owens (DD-776) : ウィキペディア英語版
USS James C. Owens

USS ''James C. Owens'' (DD-776), an ''Allen M. Sumner''-class destroyer, is the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for Lieutenant James C. Owens, Jr., a member of Torpedo Squadron 8 on board ''Hornet'' (CV-8). His entire squadron was lost in an attack against Japanese carriers 4 June during the Battle of Midway. Lt. Owens received the Navy Cross and the Presidential Unit Citation (US) posthumously.
''James C. Owens'' (DD-776) was laid down 9 April 1944, by the Bethlehem Steel Co., San Pedro, California; launched 1 October 1944; sponsored by Mrs. James C. Owens, Jr., widow of Lt. Owens; and commissioned 17 February 1945, Commander R. H. Blair in command.
==World War II==

After shakedown off southern California, ''James C. Owens'' departed San Pedro 10 May escorting ''California'' (BB-44) to Pearl Harbor, arriving 16 May. She cleared Pearl Harbor 24 May and sailed as convoy escort via Eniwetok and Ulithi to Okinawa. Arriving 17 June, she continued to Kerama Retto to join DesRon 24, which steamed 24 June for Leyte, where it joined a cruiser-destroyer striking force. Sailing 13 July via Okinawa, the force entered the East China Sea 22 July to conduct antishipping sweeps. ''James C. Owens'' operated with the striking force for a month and then operated out of Okinawa until departing 20 September for Japan as part of the Wakayama Occupation Group. Arriving 22 September, she supported occupation landings, patrolled off southern Japanese islands, and served as courier and escort ship. Steaming from Japan 5 December, she reached San Diego the 22nd, departed for the East Coast 3 January 1946, and arrived New York 15 January.
For more than 16 months, ''James C. Owens'' operated along the Atlantic Coast from New England to Texas. She conducted ASW training out of Newport, Rhode Island; participated in destroyer maneuvers off the Florida coast; and served as escort and plane guard for ''Saipan'' (CVL-48) in the Gulf of Mexico. Following operations out of Norfolk, Virginia, she departed Quonset Point, Rhode Island, 30 July 1947, with DesRon 2 for deployment with the 6th Fleet. She cruised the Mediterranean from Algeria to Italy and supported U. S. efforts to settle the unstable situation in Trieste before returning to the United States 21 December. She returned to the Mediterranean in June 1948 and supported U. N. efforts to establish peace between Israeli and Arab forces. During this deployment, she patrolled the coast of Palestine, supported the evacuation of the U. N. Mediation Team in July, and helped to prevent the spread of conflict in the Middle East. Returning home early in October, she operated along the Atlantic coast until she decommissioned at Charleston, South Carolina, 3 April 1950.
