History
- The USS Turner (DD-648) was a Gleaves-class destroyer, and was one of three ships named after Captain Daniel Turner.
- It is not to be confused with:
- USS Turner (DD-259): a Clemson-class destroyer commissioned in 1919. First of three ships named after Captain Daniel Turner.
- USS Turner (DD-506): an experimental destroyer escort whose construction was cancelled. [1]
- USS Turner (DD-834): a Gearing-class destroyer commissioned in 1945. Last of three ships named after Captain Daniel Turner.
- USS Turner Joy: a Forrest-Sherman class destroyer, commissioned in 1959. Named after Admiral Charles Turner Joy.
- USS Richmond K. Turner: a Leahy-class cruiser destroyer leader commissioned in 1964. Named after Admiral Richmond Kelly Turner.
- The USS Turner disaster is sometimes credited for the redesign of officers quarters. Initially, officers were held all in one space, and they were all killed after the first explosion. [2]
