USS Mahan (DD-364)
I added the lead to the above article and re-worked the body. The article’s origin is the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships (DANFS). In addition, I included three general references to the existing two –

United States Destroyer Operations In World War II – 1953: This book contains twenty pages of information about the eight-year existence of Mahan, and it parallels the material in the DANFS article. Rear Admiral Thomas L Wattles edited the book’s manuscript, and its preparation was aided by critical comment from destroyer officers.

Kamikaze – 2000: This book devotes two pages to the sinking of Mahan and confirms the DANFS material.

AT WAR with the WIND – 2008: This book devotes three pages to the sinking of Mahan and confirms the DANFS material.

I added an external link to USS Mahan Association, because it has a host of details about Mahan and contains first-hand accounts of the Kamikaze attack and sinking.

Please help me make this article a better one. Pendright (talk) 01:51, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
