USS ''Sudbury'' (ID-2149) was a United States Navy cargo ship in commission from 1918 to 1919. ''Sudbury'' was built in 1917 at Chester, Pennsylvania, by the Chester Shipbuilding Corporation as the commercial cargo ship SS ''Sudbury'' for the Shawmut Line. The U.S. Navy acquired ''Sudbury'' for World War I service on 5 March 1918 and commissioned her the same day at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as USS ''Sudbury'' with the naval registry Identification Number (Id. No.) 2149. Assigned to the Naval Overseas Transportation Service, ''Sudbury'' loaded a cargo of United States Army supplies and departed Philadelphia on 20 March 1918 for New York City, where she joined a convoy that got underway for France on 24 March 1918. She arrived at Brest, France, on 8 April 1918. From there, she proceeded to Bordeaux, France, unloaded her cargo, and departed on 5 May 1918 for New York City. ''Sudbury'' made three more voyages to France in 1918. On 10 January 1919, ''Sudbury'' departed Philadelphia for Trieste. She completed the round-trip by arriving at Philadelphia on 3 April 1919. On 11 April 1919, ''Sudbury'' was decommissioned, stricken from the Navy List, and returned to her owner. ==References== * *(NavSource Online: Section Patrol Craft Photo Archive: Sudbury (SP 2149) ) 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 Sudbury (ID-2149)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
