DD-697
A ship so strong, it never failed.
USS Charles S. Sperry, its name so grand,
A destroyer of the United States Navy, it manned.
It served with honor, so gallantly.
Protecting the waters, day and night,
With its crew, brave and full of might.
Sold to Chile, a South American land.
Ministro Zenteno, its new name,
Continued its journey, seeking no fame.
Its stories of valor, forever told.
In 1990, its final fate was sealed,
The mighty ship was scrapped, its fate revealed.
The USS Charles S. Sperry, forever true.
A symbol of strength, courage, and pride,
A ship that sailed, with the tides.
