This is a list of auxiliaries of the United States Navy. It covers the various types of ships that support the frontline combat vessels of the United States Navy. Auxiliary ships which function as hospital ships and as oilers are to be found in their own articles: List of United States Navy hospital ships and List of United States Navy oilers. Escort carriers, amphibious warfare vessels, and some mine warfare vessels were also originally classed as auxiliaries but were later given their own hull classification symbols outside the auxiliary series (which all begin with an 'A'). Links to these and other list articles of similar ships can be found throughout this article. Yard and district craft also function as auxiliaries but generally are smaller and less capable than their ocean-going counterparts, and so they generally remain in harbors and coastal areas.



Their hull classification symbols begin with a 'Y'. Ship status is indicated as either currently active [A], ready reserve [R], inactive [I], or precommissioning [P]. Ships in the inactive category include only ships in the inactive reserve, ships which have been disposed from US service have no listed status. Ships in the precommissioning category include ships under construction or on order. Listed ship classes will often state 'MA type' or 'MC type'. The difference is that 'MC Type' refers to ships designed by the United States Maritime Commission aka MarCom, while 'MA Type' refers to ships designed or converted under MarCom's successor agency, the United States Maritime Administration or MarAd. They are in fact the same designs, and the year 1950 is the date at which MarAd succeeded MarCom.

Informations

Bridgetown (UN/LOCODE: BB BGI) is the capital and largest city of Barbados. Formerly The City of Saint Michael, the Greater Bridgetown area is located within the parish of Saint Michael. Bridgetown is sometimes locally known as"The City", but the most frequent reference is only"Town". As of 2014, its metropolitan population stands at roughly 110,000. The Bridgetown port, located along Carlisle Bay (at 13.106°N 59.632°W / 13.106; -59.632 (Bridgetown port)) is located on the southwestern coast of the island. Parts of the Greater Bridgetown area (as roughly characterized by the Ring Road Bypass or more commonly known as the ABC Highway), sit near the borders of the neighbouring parishes Christ Church and St. James. The Grantley Adams International Airport for Barbados, is located 16 kilometres (10 mi) southeast of Bridgetown city centre, and has daily flights to major cities in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and the Caribbean.



There's not any longer a local municipal government, but it's a constituency of the national Parliament. Throughout the short-lived 1950s-1960s Federation of the British West Indian Territories, Bridgetown was one of three capital cities within the region being considered to be the Federal capital of region.The present-day location of town was established by English settlers in 1628; a previous settlement under the authority of Sir William Courten was at St. James Town. Bridgetown is a major West Indies tourist destination, and the city acts as an important financial, informatics, conference centre, and cruise ship port of call in the Caribbean region. On 25 June 2011,"Historical Bridgetown and its Garrison" was added as a World Heritage Site of UNESCO.
