ww2dbaseOriginally intended for as a lend-lease ship to Britain, this destroyer escort was first known as HMS Berry. In Jan 1943 she was recommissioned as a United States Navy ship by the name of Doherty. Her first mission was to escort convoys between Alaska, Pearl Harbor, and the west coast of the United States, occasionally picking up the extra duty as plane guards for Army bombers. On 28 Sep 1944 she returned to San Francisco for refitting as a training vessel in submarine exercises, a role she carried on beyond the end of WW2. After a few post-war tours of duty as escort, patrol, or rescue vessel, she was decommissioned and sold for scraps at the end of 1946.
