J Mn This replica of the famous Minute Man Statue in Concord, Massachusetts was sculptored by Daniel Chester French (1850-1931).

She saw service throughout the world, and in May 1898 participated in the Battle of Manila with Admiral Dewey ' s squadron. This resounding victory resulted in American con- trol of the Philippines and renewed American interests and responsibilities in the far east. The first USS CONCORD, a sloop of war, was commissioned in May of 1830. She saw service in the Mediterranean, the West Indies and South America, and the Indian Ocean. J I S ■ !( ' » The third USS CONCORD, an ocean going tug, was commissioned in November, 1917. The fourth USS CONCORD (CL-10), a light cruiser, was commissioned in November, 1923. She saw service throughout the world, and in April of 1944 she participated in bombardments of the Kurile Islands which prevented their ef- fective use by the Japanese.
