USS Bridgeport

One ship of the United States Navy has been named USS Bridgeport, after the city of Bridgeport, Connecticut; a second was cancelled before completion.

• The first Bridgeport (AD-10) was originally the German passenger ship SS Breslau, seized in World War I and used as a transport.

• The second USS Bridgeport (CA-127) was to have been an Oregon City-class heavy cruiser. The keel was laid 13 January 1945 by Bethlehem Steel in Quincy, Massachusetts, but construction was cancelled 12 August of that year.
