The Bagleys were very similar
to the Gridleys but
were
completed in Navy yards in 1937.
The commercial shipyards apparently cut many corners in construction
which the
Navy did not, with the result that the Bagleys were
both structurally
stronger and more stable. However, they were also somewhat slower.
