The third USS Buck (DD-761), an {{sclass-|Allen M. Sumner|destroyer}}, was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named for James Buck, a Civil War Medal of Honor Recipient.

The second Buck (DD-761) was launched on 11 March 1945 by Bethlehem Steel Co., San Francisco, California, sponsored by Miss Mary Nimitz, daughter of Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz; and commissioned on 28 June 1946, Commander H. H. Nielsen in command.

Service history

After completion of shakedown in September 1946, Buck operated with the Pacific Fleet along the west coast from Acapulco, Mexico, to Ketchikan, Alaska. Between December 1948 and the summer of 1949 Buck made a cruise to the Far East. Upon her return to San Diego she participated in reserve cruises along the west coast and in Operation Miki off the Hawaiian Islands. Buck departed the United States on 11 January 1950 for her second Western Pacific tour and returned to California on 25 April 1950. Shortly thereafter, she entered San Francisco Naval Shipyard for overhaul.

Korea

Late in 1950, as a unit of Destroyer Division 71, Buck joined the United Nations Forces in Korea. While there she suffered considerable damage in a collision with the destroyer {{USS|John W. Thomason|DD-760|2}}. Buck was ordered back to the west coast after temporary repairs at Sasebo, Japan. Between January and March 1951 she underwent repairs at Bremerton, Washington, and then returned to Korean waters arriving 30 April 1951. She operated with United Nations Forces until July when she returned to the west coast. In January 1952 Buck, with Destroyer Division 71, departed for another tour in the Western Pacific. She operated with the shore bombardment forces and with the fast carrier task force until returning to San Diego 11 July 1952. On her sixth Far Eastern tour, between 21 February and 22 September 1953, she operated with TF's 72, 77, 95, 96, and 97 off Korea until the Armistice was declared.

Buck continued operations along the western seaboard and completed at least three more Far Eastern cruises.

Buck received six battle stars for her Korean service.
