CA = Heavy cruiser
CL = Light cruiser (may have been a CLA for those AAA light cruisers w/ the 6 quick firing 5" gun turrets - memory fails here)
DD = Destroyer
DE = Destroyer escort
SS = submarine

(there were more for minor and auxiliary vessels but those were the main ones).

USS = is appended to every ship in commission and stands for United States Ship - it is akin to HMS in the Royal Navy.

That's it!!! My new submarine will be USS-U Suck at Submarines or U Sinking Soon!
