USS Shubrick (DD-639)
USS ''Shubrick'' (DD-639), a ''Gleaves''-class destroyer, was the fourth ship of the United States Navy to be named for Rear Admiral William B. Shubrick.
''Shubrick'' was laid down on 17 February 1942 by the Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth, Virginia, launched on 18 April 1942, sponsored by Mrs. Grosvenor Bemis, great-great-granddaughter of R.Adm. Shubrick; and commissioned on 7 February 1943, Lieutenant Commander Louis A. Bryan in command.
==Operation Husky==
After shakedown, ''Shubrick'' sailed for North Africa with a large convoy on 8 June 1943. Reaching her destination, she prepared for Operation Husky and, on 10 July, provided fire support for the Amphibious Battle of Gela, Sicily. She engaged enemy shore batteries and broke up an enemy tank concentration, then retired to protect the transports offshore. On 11 and 12 July, she shot down two aircraft. After two trips to Bizerte and another period of shore bombardment, she escorted the cruiser ''Savannah'' (CL-42) to Palermo. There, during a night air raid on 4 August, ''Shubrick'' was hit amidships by a 500-pound bomb which caused flooding of two main machinery spaces and left the ship without power. Nine were killed and 20 wounded in the attack. The damaged destroyer was towed by ''Nauset'' (AT-89) into the inner harbor for emergency repairs and then to Malta for drydocking. Using one screw, the ship returned to the United States, arriving in New York on 9 October for permanent repairs.
