1918: Sinclair DD-275, Sinclair (DD-275) Keel laid down on 15 October
by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corp., Squantum, Mass. launched on 2
June 1919; sponsored by Mrs. George Barnett, granddaughter of Capt.
Sinclair, and commissioned on 8 October 1919, Lt. Comdr. C. S. Roberts
in command.
On 22 November 1930, Sinclair was renamed Light Target #3 (IX-37). Due
to faulty boilers, however, her conversion to a target ship was
canceled. She recovered her original name on 24 April 1931 and her
destroyer designation on 11 August 1931. Sinclair was struck from the
Navy list on 5 June 1935 and sold on 30 August 1935 to Learner and
Rosenthal, Oakland, Calif., for scrapping. Source:
