If this is similar to other frigate, maybe a generic one would do...Wikited (talk) 17:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Upgraded page
editReplaced old blue infobox with newer ship infobox. Expanded text from about four paragraphs to what it is now, much larger and detailed. Added two intro paragraphs as a summary of the ship's extended career. Tried to retain any mods to the existing page, such as (see Note at bottom of text). Added See Also links, cats, etc. Because the ship's career was so extended, being decommisioned after each task, I added years to the chapter headings to show depth of career.
I did not find any illustrations in either of the DANFS sites. However, this ship seems so important, that there must be one somewhere.Wikited (talk) 17:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Number of guns
editDANFS lists this ship at a "44-gun frigate" but shows her carrying 54 guns. I know that some sailing ships carried extra guns, but this seems odd...
Does anyone have information as to exactly how many guns she carried, or is the "44-gun frigate" just a nominal description?Wikited (talk) 14:41, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
List of Fictional Ships: JAG/NCIS Universe!
editHello! I came here because, this morning I saw the episode of "The Twilight Zone" titled, "Judgment Night" set aboard the, "S.S. Queen of Glasgow". I saw her name in that list, I read the article about the episode too, and then I saw the section about "JAG/NCIS" and I noticed that it hasn't been updated to list the, "USS Brandywine" as recently featured in an episode of "NCIS" where it was a type of aircraft carrier. Hmm. I'm thinking they used the "USS Tarawa" as their visual aid for exterior shots, while the interior looked like that of the SS Victory Lane, again. As for the "SS Queen of Glasgow", the episode article correctly refers to her as a cargo ship, while the list of fictional ships, refers to her as a passenger ship. She was a cargo ship that had taken on a few passengers, despite not being designed for them. I just thought I'd pass long this data to you all. LeoStarDragon1 (talk) 22:51, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
Added JPEG to Infobox
editWhile researching Admiral William Radford, I found an illustration of the Brandywine in 1831 and posted it.Seblake (talk) 23:33, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
