I have an interest in DD468.

I built her as DD448 La Valette. She would be almost identical to the USS Taylor except that I don't think that the Taylor had the raised AA fire control mount above the number 3 turret like the first few Fletcher round-bridges had.

I went to a reunion of the Taylor (my dad's ship in WWII) in 2004. There were six Pearl Harbor survivors there.
