The first USS ''Savannah'' was a coastal galley that served in the U.S. Navy from 1799 to 1802. ''Savannah'' was one of a number of small vessels authorized by an Act of Congress, approved 4 May 1798, to be used as Naval Militia training craft and for harbor defense. The ''Savannah'' class was designed by Joshua Humphreys and built at Savannah, Georgia, by John Patterson. ''Savannah'' was placed in service on 20 March 1799, with "Captain of a Galley" John F. Randolph in command. The galleys were placed under the immediate command of Major General Charles C. Pinckney on 19 April 1799. ''Savannah'' was sold out of service in February 1802. ==References== * 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 Savannah (1798)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
