USS Slater, Naval museum ship on Hudson River, Albany, United States
The USS Slater DE-766 stands 306 feet long with torpedo tubes, depth charge racks, and multiple anti-aircraft guns along its steel decks.
This Cannon-class destroyer escort protected Atlantic convoys against German U-boats during World War II before serving in the Greek Navy from 1951 to 1991.
The vessel functions as an educational center where visitors learn about maritime operations and naval warfare through preserved equipment and living spaces.
The museum opens Wednesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, offering guided tours every 30 minutes with free parking next to the ship.
The USS Slater remains the only floating destroyer escort in the United States that maintains its original World War II combat configuration.
