Did you know? 💭 It must have seemed a bit unusual in the 1960s, especially for shipbuilders who had served in World War II, when we were building ships named for German military leaders. The Lütjens-class guided missile destroyers were named for Field Marshall Erwin Rommel “the Desert Fox,” Luftwaffe Col. Werner Mölders, a German ace who shot down more than 100 allied aircraft, and Admiral Günther Lütjens, who commanded the German battleship Bismark. In a weird twist, Lütjens was tied up alongside a U.S. destroyer escort under construction that was commonly called USS Furer (DEG 6). This ship was not named for Adolph Hitler – the infamous German leader often referred to by his followers as the “Fuhrer” or leader – but was actually named for Rear Admiral Julius A. Furer. The son of German immigrants, Furer was a highly decorated naval architect and engineer for the U.S. Navy who coordinated development of new weapons systems for the U.S. in World War II. #FastFact #BathIronWorks #
