USS Wilbert A. Edwards (SP-315)
USS ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' (SP-315), sometimes called USS ''W. A. Edwards'', was a United States Navy patrol vessel in commission from 1917 to 1919.
==Construction, acquisition, and commissioning==
''Wilbert A. Edwards'' was built as a wooden-hulled commercial steam fishing vessel of the same name in 1911 by M. M. Davis at Solomons Island, Maryland, for the W. A. Edwards Corporation. The U.S. Navy purchased her from the W. A. Edwards Corporation in 1917 for World War I service as a patrol vessel. She was commissioned as USS ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' (SP-315) on 10 August 1917〔Per the ''Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships'' (at http://www.history.navy.mil/research/histories/ship-histories/danfs/w/wilbert-a-edwards.html), Navy General Order No. 314 of 28 July 1917 specified that "scout patrol" vessels having compound names -- such as ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' -- would be known by the surname only, which would have required USS ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' to become simply USS ''Edwards'', but ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' appears to have retained her full name for the duration of her Navy service. Her logs, in fact, carry the name USS ''W. A. Edwards'', while the ''Ships Data, U.S. Naval Vessels 1918'' carries the full name USS ''Wilbert A. Edwards'' on the list of naval vessels.〕 at the Norfolk Navy Yard in Portsmouth, Virginia, with Lieutenant D. C. Kindell, USNRF, in command.
