USS ''Suzanne'' (SP-510) was a United States Navy patrol vessel in commission from 1917 to 1918. ''Suzanne'' was built as the private motor yacht ''Cristina'' in 1908 by George Lawley & Son at Neponset, Massachusetts, for Frederick C. Fletcher of Boston, Massachusetts. She later was renamed ''Esperanza'', then ''Jorosa'', and then ''Suzanne''. On 18 May 1917, the U.S. Navy acquired ''Suzanne'' from her owner - by then F. M. Kirby of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania - for use as a section patrol boat during World War I. She was commissioned as USS ''Suzanne'' (SP-510) the same day. Assigned to the 4th Naval District, ''Suzanne'' served on patrol duties there for the remainder of World War I. ''Suzanne'' was stricken from the Navy List on 28 December 1918 and returned to Kirby the same day. She resumed private service as ''Suzanne'' until 1938, when she was sold to J. P. Bushong of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and renamed ''Cristina''. She later operated under the names ''Old Horse Eye'' and ''Jo Ho''. ''Suzanne'' should not confused with , a patrol vessel in commission at the same time, or with , the proposed name and designation for a vessel considered for U.S. Navy service at the same time but never acquired by the Navy. ==References== * *(NavSource Online: Section Patrol Craft Photo Archive: Suzanne (SP 510) ) 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 Suzanne (SP-510)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
