LAUNCHING , s, - : 5 1391: A - X 1f:.r1:.. 1645, JUNE 24,1944 , se DOWN TO THE SEA! Official US. Navy Plmfografvlz The keel of a then unnamed Sumner class destroyer was laid in January, 1944, at the Bath lron Wforks, Bath, Maine. For six long months, work progressed at top speed, day and night, through all kinds of weather until, on june 24, 19-l-1, a ship stood poised and ready for her baptismal plunge into the waters of the Kennebec River. On that sunny afternoon, as the men and women who built this trim hull number 238 looked on, the sponsor christened the ship in honor of her husband, the late Col, Harold Douglas Shannon, USMC. After the USS Shannon CDD 7371 had been launched, she was moored alongside the dock, Where her superstructure and armament were to be added and her fittings installed, The Shannon's destiny, however, was soon changed when her designation became light-minelaycr-DM 25. That meant a change in armament and complement, and most important of all, a change in prospective duty. SPONSOR, MRS. HAROLD D. SHANNON Uff1't'1't1l t'..S'. .X'trr'y l'lmlnff1'11l1l1 9. ,gf-.
