Summary[edit]

Description

The French Marine Nationale destroyer Châteaurenault (D606) off Yorktown, Virginia (USA), on 19 October 1961. Châteaurenault participated in the 180th anniversary of the Battle of Yorktown.

Châteaurenault had been commissioned as the Italian light cruiser Attilo Regolo. She and her sistership Scipione Africano were transferred to France as war reparations in 1948. The ships were extensively rebuilt with new anti-aircraft-focussed armament and fire-control systems in 1951-54. The ships were decommissioned in 1961.
