Excuse my ignorance. Did you mean the followinng:

SS --> Sink the sub
CV --> damage and sink the battleship - what does CV stand for?
CA --> sink the cruiser?

I am a pacifist, you know? So these abbreviations do not tell me a lot…

Thank you Sir! I made a screen shot :-)

Other ones I’ve seen used in history books or games include:

• DE - Escort Destroyer
• CVE - Escort Carrier

[FlyingBadger]

Maybe there’s a whole bunch of them, or a society dedicated to them or something, seem like useful shorthand.
