USS Everett F. Larson (DD-830) was a Gearing-class destroyer commissioned into the United States Navy in April 1945, near the end of World War II. Although she missed combat in WWII, the Everett F. Larson served extensively during the Korean War, providing naval gunfire support and screening for aircraft carriers. Throughout the Cold War, she was deployed in both the Atlantic and Pacific, participating in anti-submarine warfare exercises and supporting U.S. commitments in the Taiwan Strait and Vietnam. The ship was decommissioned in 1972 and subsequently transferred to the Republic of Korea Navy, where she served as ROKS Jeong Buk until her retirement.
