Editorial interest 87/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A source-conscious history of the Fletcher-class destroyer USS Cony, organized around her builders, crews, shipmates, and surviving records.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-11 issue.
For
Naval-history readers and USS Cony shipmates
Worth noticing
The site says each named person is tied to a cited public record, with a Names & Records page showing the documents.

Field notes

The homepage separates the ship's chronology from the sections about the people connected to her, while keeping the chronology as their organizing spine. Its source notes name the Navy's official ship history, deck logs, National Archives casualty lists, and Congressional Record. It also explicitly limits its asbestos references: the linked records provide context, not evidence that Cony carried asbestos or that a crew member was exposed.
