	USS Ringgold (DD-500) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Destroyers Ringgold and Dashiell (DD-659) were scheduled for an early entrance into the lagoon 20 November.
		Minesweepers Pursuit (AM-108) and Requisite (AM-109), under cover of a smoke screen, swept a channel from the transport area into the lagoon during the bombardment, and they used their own guns to bark replies to Japanese shore batteries.
		What most helped these Marines throughout that gruesome day was the presence of destroyers Ringgold and Dashiell, relieved by Frazier (DD-607) and Anderson (DD-411).

		This is a list of destroyers of the United States Navy, sorted by hull number.
		It includes all of the series DD, DL, DDG, DLG, DLGN.
		CG-47 Ticonderoga and CG-48 Yorktown were approved as destroyers (DDG-47 and DDG-48) and redesignated cruisers while under construction; it is uncertain whether CG-49 Vincennes and CG-50 Valley Forge were ever authorized as destroyers by the United States Congress (though the fact that the DDG sequence resumes with DDG-51 Arleigh Burke argues that they were).
