Default Forest Sherman Class DD

The Forest Sherman class consisted of 18 ships. The ones I've highlighted in RED below weren't stricken until 1990. They seem like the best candidates to have stayed in some form of mobilization reserve and preserved in T2Kverse. That's nine ships, plus a test ship conversion. Two more were stricken in 1988/1989.

The ships you listed work, except for Manly DD-940. She'd been stricken for almost 14 years and was likely in terrible material condition.

It's basically AH, so I see no reason not to say they were all at the Philadelphia Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility if that's what you wanted to do.
