USS Turner Joy, a museum ship in Bremerton, Washington. This Forrest Sherman class destroyer was commissioned in 1959, saw war service in Vietnam, and has been at this location as a museum ship since 1991. Her claim to fame is her participation, with the USS Maddox (DD 731), in the Gulf of Tonkin Incident which the President Johnson administration staged in 1964 to justify a greatly expanded US participation in the ongoing war between North Vietnam and South Vietnam.
