USS Martin H. Ray (DE-338)
USS Martin H. Ray (DE-338) was an Edsall-class destroyer escort built for the U.S. Navy during World War II. She served in the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean and provided destroyer escort protection against submarine and air attack for Navy vessels and convoys.
She was named in honor of Lieutenant Martin H. Ray, Jr., who was awarded the Navy Cross posthumously for his heroic actions during the last stages of the Battle of Midway, 6 June 1942. She was laid down 27 October 1943 by Consolidated Steel Corp., Orange, Texas; launched 23 December 1943; sponsored by Mrs. M. H. Ray, Jr., widow of ''Lt. Ray'', and commissioned 28 February 1944, Lt. H. V. Tucker, Jr., in command.
== World War II North Atlantic operations==
After a month’s shakedown cruise to Bermuda, ''Martin H. Ray'' spent 3 weeks at Norfolk, Virginia, training prospective destroyer escort crews. June 1944 marked the beginning of a 12-month period in which not one ship was lost by the 14 convoys she escorted. Coastal assignments yielded to transatlantic voyages when she sailed from Norfolk, 1 July, bound for Naples, Italy. After two voyages to Italy she departed New York 20 October on the first of five voyages to the British Isles and France. Besides depth charging every probable submarine contact ''Martin H. Ray'' and the other escorts honed their professional effectiveness by additional training periods at the conclusion of each of these passages.
