USS Tuscaloosa was a United States Navy New Orleans-class cruiser, which was named after the city of Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The ship was commissioned in 1934, and served in the Pacific and Atlantic theaters during World War II.
During its time in service, USS Tuscaloosa participated in many battles and operations, including the invasion of North Africa, the Allied invasion of Italy, and the Normandy landings. The ship also served as the flagship for the Eighth Fleet and the Commander of Allied Naval Forces in the Mediterranean.
After World War II, USS Tuscaloosa was decommissioned and placed in reserve. In 1957, the ship was stricken from the Naval Vessel Register and sold for scrapping. Despite being out of service for almost 70 years, the legacy of USS Tuscaloosa lives on through museums, memorials, and historical documents recounting its heroic service to the nation.
