USS Tweedy (DE-532)
USS ''Tweedy'' (DE-532) was a acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War II. The primary purpose of the destroyer escort was to escort and protect ships in convoy, in addition to other tasks as assigned, such as patrol or radar picket.
''Tweedy'' was named in honor of Albert William Tweedy, Jr. who was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross for his valiant effort in attacking Japanese carriers during the Battle of Midway.
She was laid down on 31 August 1943 by the Boston Navy Yard; launched on 7 October 1943; sponsored by Mrs. Albert William Tweedy, Lt. Tweedy's mother; and commissioned on 12 February 1944, Lt. Comdr. Thomas Donald Cunningham in command.

On completion of her fitting out, ''Tweedy'' departed Boston, Massachusetts, on 1 March and steamed for Bermuda where she conducted shakedown exercises through the end of the month. En route from Bermuda to Boston on 30 and 31 March, the destroyer escort conducted an unproductive 13-hour search for a German submarine known to be lurking in the coastal shipping lanes.
