 USS Foote
The second Foote (DD-169) was launched 14 December 1918 by Fore River Shipbuilding Co., Quincy MA; sponsored by Mrs.
Foote sailed from Boston 3 May 1919 to take up an observation station off Newfoundland for the historic first aerial crossing of the Atlantic, made later that month by Navy seaplanes.
In the summer of 1921, Foote operated with 50 percent of her complement during summer target practice in Narragansett Bay, and returning to Charleston, she lay there and at Boston for alterations and repairs until decommissioned at Philadelphia 6 July 1922.

 List of United States Navy destroyers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CG-47 Ticonderoga and CG-48 Yorktown were approved as destroyers (DDG-47 and DDG-48) and redesignated cruisers before being laid down; 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).
DDG-47 became USS Ticonderoga (CG-47), shifted to CG 1 Jan 1980
DDG-48 became USS Yorktown (CG-48), shifted to CG 1 Jan 1980
