USS Hunt (DD-194)

The USS Hunt (DD-194) was a Clemson-class destroyer in the United States Navy during World War II. Commissioned in 1920, she served in various capacities in the interwar period, including training exercises and fleet maneuvers.

During World War II, the Hunt primarily served on convoy escort duty in the Atlantic Ocean, protecting merchant ships from German U-boats. She was involved in several engagements with submarines and contributed to the Allied war effort by safely delivering vital supplies and personnel.

Following the conclusion of World War II, the USS Hunt was decommissioned and later scrapped. Her service reflected the important role destroyers played in protecting Allied shipping lanes and combating the U-boat threat in the Atlantic.
