Powell Others were sent as they became available, and new destroyers, in course of construction when war began, were dispatched to Europe upon completion. All but two of the destroyers we had in April, 1917, served in foreign waters. We also sent to Europe nine of the old type later designated as "coast torpedo vessels"--the _Bainbridge_, _Barry_, _Chauncey_, _Dale_, _Decatur_, _McDonough_, _Stewart_, _Truxtun_ and _Worden_--and, old and small as they were, they did excellent service. Eighty-five destroyers, in all, saw service in the "war zone."
