The Military Channel had the Fletchers ranked #5 in the greatest classes of ships and the only destroyers to make the list. the most famous of the Fletchers was DD489, the USS Johnston under Lt. Com. Ernest Evans. Evans won the Medal of Honor for his and his ship's sacrifice. The Johnston blew the bow off a heavy cruiser with torpedoes.
