#1000354 - AD 24 Everglades -- United States (Navy), 1951-0, -
USS Everglades (AD-24) was one of four Klondike class destroyer tenders built at the tail end of World War II for the United States Navy. The vessel was named for the Florida Everglades. Everglades was launched on 28 January 1945 by the Todd Shipyard Corporation, San Pedro, California, sponsored by Mrs. Anne E. Richardson, and completed on 23 May 1946. Never commissioned, she was turned over to the San Diego Group, Pacific Reserve Fleet for inactivation on 15 May 1947. United States embroilment in the Korean War occasioned activation of Everglades, who commissioned for the first time on 25 May 1951, Captain Thomas M. Brown commanding. Following shakedown and training exercises, Everglades transited the Panama Canal and arrived at Norfolk, Virginia, for duty with Destroyer Force Atlantic. She played a vital part in keeping the Navy ready, repairing Norfolk-based destroyers and servicing ships in the Caribbean or the Mediterranean where she made four extensive cruises through the end of 1960. Everglades removed aircraft wreckage from the Palomares Incident for dumping in the Atlantic. Everglades was decommissioned in January 1970 at Charleston, S.C |
