USS Flasher
Two ships of the United States Navy have borne the name USS Flasher, named in honor of the flasher, a large edible fish, also known as tripletail. A member of the Lobotidae family of fishes, with an unusual placement of the second dorsal and anal fins, posteriorly on the body, close to the tail, it is found in the western Atlantic from Cape Cod to northern South America.
