USS Derry (ID-1391), was a United States Navy barge in service from 1917 to 1919.

Derry was built as a non-self-propelled commercial barge at South Rondout, New York, in 1894. The U.S. Navy acquired her from her owners, the Susquehanna Coal Company of New York City, in November 1917, assigning her naval registry Identification Number (Id. No.) 1391. She served in and near New York Harbor through the end of the war.

Derry was returned to her owners in July 1919.

The operations of this harbor tug—which was assigned the identification number -are not reflected in any logs, but sources indicate that her ultimate duty was to handle barges at Norfolk, VA. Recorded as transferred from 3d to 5th Naval District on 20 August 1919, her service in that locale was apparently quite short, since the same source indicates that she was returned to her owner on 28 August 1919. Her name was struck from the Navy list on the same day.
