Details

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Barber (DE-161/APD-57), a Buckley-class destroyer escort of the United States Navy, was named in honor of brother Malcolm, Randolph, and Leroy Barber who were all killed aboard the USS Oklahoma on 7 December 1941. The ship was laid down in April 1943 and launched one month later, but because the Barber brothers' mother was not available on the day of launching, the ship was christened at the same time the she was commissioned in October 1943. After a year of service in the Atlantic escorting convoys and helping to sink U-488, Barber was converted to a Charles Lawrence-class high speed transport and assigned the new hull code of APD-57. After her conversion was complete in January 1945, Barber sailed for duty in the Pacific. After earning three battle stars for her wartime service, Barber was decommissioned in March 1946 and placed in reserve.
