  • Phil Osborne said:
    The second USS Tennessee (ACR-10), also referred to as "Armored Cruiser No. 10", and later renamed Memphis, was a United States Navy armored cruiser, the lead ship of her class. She was laid down by the Cramp Shipbuilding Company of Philadelphia on 20 June 1903,[1] launched on 3 December 1904, sponsored by Ms. Annie K. Frazier (daughter of Governor James B. Frazier of Tennessee and later the foundress of the Society of Sponsors of the United States Navy), and commissioned at the Philadelphia Navy Yard on 17 July 1906, Captain Albert Gleaves Berry in command.[2]

    An account of her planned commissioning at Brooklyn Navy Yard, June 3, 1920: "PUT THE TENNESSEE INTO SERVICE TODAY; Biggest Battleship Afloat Will Be Commissioned Here with Simple Ceremonies. CREW ALL TENNESSEANS Delegations Arrive from Name State --Vessel's "Fighting Brain" a Marvel. The Tennessee, the biggest battleship afloat, will be put into commission with ceremonies at 2:30 this afternoon at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where it was built at a cost of about $20,000,000. She is a unique ship in many respects." query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=950CE0D91F3BEE...
