Talk:Benson-class destroyer

Anyone know the unit cost for these things back in WW2?

Arthur J Bross jr Bkr2

I'm the son of Arthur J Bross jr. My father was on this ship during WW2, I have a plaque that states, he crossed the equator in 1944, on the USS Benson. My father passed away in 1973, I am looking for anyone that served along side my father during this period. My email address is as follows; gsb@epconline.com Thanks Gary

SWEET

my last name is Benson, anyone happen to know where the ship got its name?

The characteristics for the Benson class says there are 4 5 in guns, both photos show 5 mounts. The torpedo count also seems off, there is a single 5? tube mount.
