USS Edson
(DD-946) The USS Edson, famed Navy destroyer from the Vietnam War, is now maintained and administered by the Saginaw Valley Naval Ship Museum. The museum ship honors not only the men and women of our modern US Navy, but also recognizes the accomplishments of those who helped build and maintain the Navy's ships as well. The USS Edson is a unique and lasting legacy to Bay City's maritime heritage and an active and educational facility for area residents and traveling visitors. We welcome you onboard the USS Edson.
