USS Kidd Wasn’t Kidding Around In WW2 and that is why we made this USS Kidd Warships Of World War 2 75th Anniversary Coin in her honor. She is the last US Navy Fletcher-Class destroyer with a WW2 configuration. She is the last of a great breed of USN destroyers that helped coin the term Tin Can Sailors for those who were privileged to set sail aboard one of these warships.
