USS Bush (Destroyer # 166, later DD-166), 1919-1936

USS Bush, a 1060-ton Little class destroyer, was built at Quincy, Massachusetts. Commissioned in February 1919, she operated in the East Coast area for the next three years, sometimes in reduced commission and Naval Reserve training roles. Bush was placed out of commission in June 1922 and remained in reserve at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Pennsylvania, until stricken from the list of Navy ships in January 1936. She was sold for scrapping in September of that year.

This page features the only views we have related to USS Bush (Destroyer # 166, later DD-166).
