USS Tallahassee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Only one ship of the United States Navy has been named USS Tallahassee, after the city of Tallahasee, Florida, but two others were projected to carry the name.

• The first Tallahassee (BM-10) was a monitor used as a submarine tender during World War I.

• The second Tallahassee (CL-61) was converted from a light cruiser to light aircraft carrier Princeton (CVL-23) before launching.

• The third Tallahassee (CL-116) was cancelled before launching.
