U.S.S. Cassin Young Maximum Print Size: 23" x 15" Photographer/Artist: Eric M Renard Image Number: 0036-0510-3018-0942 License This Image Poster Art-Print Description: Representative of 14 Fletcher class destroyers built at the Charlestown Navy Yard, USS Cassin Young exemplifies the intense military-industrial effort that greatly contributed to the Allied victory in World War II. Named for a winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor, Cassin Young first saw action in the Pacific in April 1944. The ship rescued some 120 survivors of the stricken carrier USS Princeton in October 1944, and carries a commemorative plaque presented by those grateful sailors. But it was on the picket line off Okinawa that she truly distinguished herself, surviving two separate hits by Japanese kamikazes. Although the second attack, on July 30, 1945, killed 22 and wounded twice as many and totally disabled the ship, the heroic efforts of her crew saved the ship. associated terms: poster, posters, art print, art prints, posters and art prints, battle ship, battle ships, battleship, battleships, boat, boats, cannon, cannons, cassin young, destroyer, destroyers, fletcher class destroyers, gun, gun turret, gun turrets, guns, military, naval, navy, s, ship, ships, u, uss, warship, warships,
