Destroyer Escort Historical Museum During World War II 563 Destroyer Escorts battled Nazi Uboats on the Atlantic protecting convoys of men and material. In the Pacific they stood in line to defend naval task forces from Japanese submarines and Kamikaze air attacks. Today only one of these ships remains afloat in the United States the USS SLATER. Moored on the Hudson River in Albany New York the USS SLATER has undergone an extensive restoration that has returned the ship to her former glory.
