If the truth be told, not much. WWI was almost completely a land war. There was one major naval battle, which took place in 1916, before the US got into the war. The US Navy escorted convoys of ships carrying troops and supplies to Europe, and guarded against submarines, and tried to hunt submarines, which was not too easy in those days. A US battleship squadron of four or five battleships operated with the British Grand Fleet from its anchorage in the Orkney Islands, Scapa Flow, but since the German High Seas Fleet would not come out to fight, it saw no action.
