GEARING CLASS DESTROYERS

The Gearing class was a group of 98 destroyers built for the US Navy during and shortly after World War II. The first Gearings were not ready for service until mid-1945 and thus saw little service in World War II. They continued serving, with a series of upgrades, until the 1970s. At that time many were sold to other nations, where they served many more years.

Four Gearing-class ships still exist, as museum ships: USS Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. (DD-850), USS Orleck (DD-886), the Turkish ship TCG Gayret (D-352) formerly USS Eversole (DD-789), the Mexican ship ARM Netzahualcóyotl (D-102) formerly USS Steinaker ((DD-863).
