10 Important Ships in U.S. History
Subjective of course, but these are my picks, in no particular order with a mix of both naval and civilian vessels
1. SS United States
Winner of the Blue Riband ribbon and the last of the U.S luxury steam ships.
2. USS Monitor
3. USS Bonhomme Richard
There have been several ships by this name but I'm referring to the flagship of Capt. John Paul Jones.
4. USS Arizona
5. USS Maine
6. SS Manhattan
The tanker, not the ocean liner
7. USS Constitution
8. SS John W. Brown
A living example of the importance of Liberty ships and the Merchant Marine
9. SS Savannah
and her spiritual sister ship.........
10. NS Savannah
11. Bonus: USS Enterprise
