USS Martinsburg ACR-10

USS Martinsburg ACR-10 also referred to as “Armored Cruiser No. 10” was an Armored Cruiser built by the US Navy. She was laid down in late 1903 and commissioned in 1905. She was designed as a counter design to the the Tennessee Class design. She was chosen over the Tennessee Class design as the US cruiser design doctrine had shifted to put more emphasis on speed and less on armament. She was part of the Great White Fleet 2nd Squadron making the full journey around the world as an escort to the 16 US pre-dreadnought battleships. In World War 1 she was tasked with escorting American troop convoys to Europe in 1918. She was struck by a torpedo from an unidentified German U-boat on 17 October 1918. She sunk as a result.
