Join us as we dive into the courageous story of the USS Hovey, a Clemson-class destroyer turned minesweeper. Launched in 1919, Hovey served in both the Mediterranean and Pacific theaters, playing a key role in World War II operations like the Guadalcanal and Leyte Gulf campaigns. Tragically, during the Lingayen Gulf invasion in 1945, she was struck by a torpedo and sank, taking 24 lives. Her eight battle stars stand as a testament to her valiant efforts in some of the war's most pivotal moments. #WWIIHeroes #USSHovey #NavyHistory
