Well I quickly threw together a website for the Mahan list. On the site are
subscription information and links to download items that are submitted to
the list.

The first things posted to download are as follows:

“Attached are two files “sunk1.zip” and “sunk2.zip”. They are extracts
from the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships (DANFS) and detail
all the USN major commissioned ships sunk during World War II. I
downloaded it from CompuServe five or six years ago and don’t know its
pedigree, but I have spot-checked it and it appears very sound. They
were popular among researchers when I was assigned to the Naval
Historical Center.

“Sunk1.zip” covers the following ship classes, with the ship names
arranged in alphabetical order: Aircraft Carriers (all types),
Battleships, Heavy Cruisers, Light Cruisers, Destroyers, Destroyer
Escorts, and Destroyer Transports.

“Sunk2.zip” covers the following ship classes, with the ship names
arranged in alphabetical order: Submarines, Mine Vessels, Patrol
Vessels, and Fleet Auxiliaries.”
