The Navy traces its origins to the Continental Navy, which was established during the American Revolutionary War and was essentially disbanded as a separate entity shortly thereafter. The United States Constitution provided the legal basis for a military force by giving Congress the power "to provide and maintain a navy". For more information, see Wikipedia: United_States_Navy.
This category represent the basic US Navy ships. They will have links to the corresponding page on Wikipedia for more information about each class of ship, or the individual ship. A free space page can be created on WikiTree if more information about the ship needs to be added that goes beyond what should be placed on a category page. For more information on classes of ships, see US Navy Ships Resources.
