In 1776 - the year of Independence - a tiny armed gondola was launched against the British on Lake Champlain. Although it (ought but a (ew weeks and was sunk to avoid capture, the gondola was signi- ficant for one reason - this was the first warship to hear the name of the capital city of Massachusetts, BOSTON. Later that same year, a frigate named USS BOSTON was commissioned with the same purpose and sailed under the small, but efficient, Revolutionary Navy. A third USS BOSTON was launched in 1799 and was to fight the pirates of the Barbary Coast and the British during the War of 1812. A fourth USS BOSTON joined the Fleet in 1825, but her grounding in the Caribbean enroute to Mexico in 1846 pre- vented her from seeing action for the United States. An armored cruiser hearing the name BOSTON was commissioned in 1889, fought with Admiral Dewey in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War, and served the Fleet as a training ship until 1946. Thus, it was only fitting that in 1943, as the United States lay embroiled in yet another struggle, another mighty warship with the name BOSTON would enter service of her country. At the Fore River Yards in Quincy, Massachusetts, the heavy cruiser USS BOSTON (CA-69) was born to fight the Japanese in the Pacific. She fought in ten campaigns, anchored in Tokyo Bay in 1945 when the Japanese sur- rendered, and she steamed home an honored veteran of the world ' s most terrible war.
