- USS_Weiss_(APD-135) abstract "The second USS Weiss (APD/LPR-135) was a Crosley-class high speed transport, the second ship of the United States Navy to be assigned the name Weiss, after Marine sergeant Carl W. Weiss (1915–1942), who was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross for his actions during the Battle of Guadalcanal. Originally designated DE-719, a Rudderow-class destroyer escort, Weiss was re-designated as APD-135, a fast transport, on 17 July 1944, even before being laid down on 4 October 1944 at the Defoe Shipbuilding Company, in Bay City, Michigan. She was launched on 17 February 1945; sponsored by Mrs. Anna Weiss. Builders trials before her pre-commissioning cruise were done in Lake Huron.After completion, Weiss sailed from the builder's yard at Bay City to Chicago, Illinois. From there, they went through the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal and down the Chicago River to Joliet, Illinois, where pontoons were attached to the ship so it could be pushed down the Des Plaines River, Illinois River, and Mississippi River as part of a barge train. After arriving at the Todd Johnson Shipyard in Algiers, Louisiana, on the west bank of the Mississippi at New Orleans, the rest of the crew reported aboard, and Weiss was commissioned at New Orleans, on 7 July 1945, with Lieutenant Commander Thomas D. Morris in command.".
