DESTROYER-ESCORT
BUILT IN 25 DAY

NEW WORLD'S RECORD IN SNIP GONSTRUCTIOI
Beats World War I Destroyer Time of
451/2 Days ? Bethlehem Set Both Mari
Mas Large Gun-Power for Both Offensive
and Defensive Service; Equipped
for Surface, Depth Bomb and
Anti-Aircraft Combat i
Booting all prior records, the destroyer-escort Reynolds was com*
pitted sod delivered November 3 to the U. S. Nary, by the Bethlehem
Hingham Shipyard just 25 days after keel laying.
The Rtymlds is a hard-hitting, fighting unit with great fire-power
and speed, a bigger, more powerful ship than the destroyer Rtid,
which hold the previous production record of being built in 45V4
days, during World War I. Bethlehem built both ships.
The RtytmUs has terrific battle armament for surface, depth bomb,
or anti-aircraft combat. Her main battery has guns mounted in three
mrrets which can revolve in a complete circle to follow a target,
and can bo fired by a trained crew with amazing accuracy and rapid
ity. Aft is a 40-mm. Bofors gun, each barrel capable of firing 120
rounds of 2-pound projectiles per minute. She has numerous 20-mm.
Oerlikon machine guns with a potential fire-power of nearly 400
shells every 60 seconds. Also, along port and starboard rails aft
of amidships are a flock of K-guns which can toss out the famous
500-pound "ash cans" which make it unhealthy for any submarine
within hundreds of yards.
The tUymldi is, in bet, one of those powerful, swift, sea-panthers

effective at 2500 yard* against air or surface targets. Like somi
of her sister ships, the is one of Uncle Sam's contributions to thi
British fleet.
The first group of ships in the destroyer-escort class were boil
in 302 days.
The next group in this class were built in 206 days.
Now the RtymUs has set the mark of 25 days.
And she is but one of hundreds of warships steaming out of th<
shipyards of America to speed the day of Victory.
