USS Gallery (FFG-26)

USS "Gallery" (FFG-26), eighteenth ship of the "Oliver Hazard Perry" class of guided-missile frigates, was named for three brothers: Rear Admiral Daniel V. Gallery (1901–1977), Rear Admiral William O. Gallery (1904–1981), and Rear Admiral Philip D. Gallery (1907–1973). Ordered from Bath Iron Works on 28 February 1977 as part of the FY77 program, "Gallery" was laid down on 17 May 1980, launched on 20 December 1980, and commissioned on 5 December 1981. Decommissioned and stricken on 14 June 1996, she was transferred to Egypt on 25 September 1996 as that nation's "Taba" (F 916).

"Gallery" (FFG-26) was the first ship of that name in the US Navy.
