High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Waterman (DE-740) was a Cannon-class destroyer escort built for the United States Navy during World War II. She served in the Pacific Ocean and provided escort service against submarine and air attack for Navy vessels and convoys. She returned home after the war with eight battle stars, far more than the average for destroyer escorts. She was named after Andrew Kenneth Waterman, who was awarded a Navy Cross posthumously in 1941 for his action against Japanese ships and aircraft. The ship was laid down on 24 February 1943 at San Pedro, California, by the Western Pipe and Steel Company; launched on 20 June 1943; sponsored by Mrs. June M. Waterman, the widow of Aviation Machinist's Mate 1st Class Waterman; and commissioned on 30 November 1943, Lt. Comdr. W. B. Hinds, USNR, in command.
