USS TRUETT

USS Truett (FF-1095) was a Knox-class frigate of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1974 and named in honor of Quincy Harris Truett, a Navy radioman who was killed in action during World War II. Designed primarily for anti-submarine warfare, Truett served extensively in the Atlantic Fleet, participating in NATO exercises and patrols throughout the North Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. The ship also took part in numerous UNITAS exercises, strengthening cooperation with South American navies. After nearly two decades of service, USS Truett was decommissioned in 1992 and later transferred to Taiwan, where she served as ROCS Fong Yang (FFG-933).
