Encyclopedia > USS Cheyenne

Three vessels of the United States Navy have been named USS Cheyenne, in honor of the city of Cheyenne, Wyoming.

  • The first Cheyenne was a tugboat in use during July and August of 1898.
  • The name Cheyenne was assigned to CL-86, but the light cruiser was renamed Vicksburg a year before she was launched in 1942.
  • The second Cheyenne (BM-10) was originally the monitor Wyoming, renamed in 1909 to make the name available for the battleship Wyoming (BB-32).
