USS Badger

At least three United States Navy ships have been named Badger, the first after the burrowing mammal, and the later ones after Oscar C. Badger[?], a 19th century commodore.

The ships George E. Badger (DD-196)[?] (later APD-33) and Charles J. Badger (DD-657)[?] may be referred to informally as "Badger".
