Addie & Carrie (Salvage Barge, 1884)
Served as USS Addie & Carrie (ID # 3226) in 1918-1919

Addie & Carrie, 179 gross ton wooden barge, was built in 1884 at City Island, New York. Before World War I she was employed as a civilian salvage barge, based at New London, Connecticut. The Navy acquired her in about September 1918 and assigned her to the Salvage Station, New London, as USS Addie & Carrie (ID # 3226). After serving through the end of World War I and into the first year of peace, she was sold back to her former owners in May 1919.

This page features all our views of the salvage barge Addie & Carrie, which was USS Addie & Carrie in 1918-19.
