USS ''SC-255'', sometimes styled as either ''Submarine Chaser No. 255'' or ''S.C.-255'', was an built for the United States Navy during World War I. Like most members of her class, she was not named and known only by her designation. ''SC-255'' was built at George Lawley & Sons in Neponset, Massachusetts in 1917. She was commissioned 19 November 1917. On 15 April 1918 ''SC-255'' left Bermuda in a convoy with 29 other submarine chasers, four U.S. Navy tugs, two French tugs and destroyer tender . Cruiser and armed yacht performed escort duty for the convoy. On 24 April, ''SC-255'' was taken under tow for a time by ''Bridgeport'', and three days later, the convoy reached Ponta Delgada, Azores.〔Cressman.〕 At some point in her career, ''SC-255'' entered dry dock in Malta. It is unclear if ''SC-255'' remained in commission on 17 July 1920. If she were, she would have received, as part of the new U.S. Navy letter-number scheme, the hull designation of PC-255.〔Radigan, ''Submarine chasers…''〕 ''SC-255'' was sold on 24 June 1921 to Joseph G. Hitner of Philadelphia. Her ultimate fate is unknown. == Notes == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「USS SC-255」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
