Cherokee-class fleet tug

The ''Cherokee'' class, originally known as the ''Navajo'' class, was a class of fleet tugs built for the United States Navy prior to the start of World War II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://uboat.net/allies/warships/class/455.html )〕 They represented a radical departure from previous ocean-going tug designs, and were far more capable of extended open ocean travel than their predecessors. This was due in large part to their length, beam, and substantial fuel-carrying capacity. They were also the first large surface vessels in the US Navy to be equipped with diesel/electric drive.〔
The first three vessels were constructed from 1938-1940, at the Staten Island Shipyard division of Bethlehem Steel Corp. Navajo and Seminole joined the Pacific fleet in 1940, and Cherokee to the Atlantic fleet. Navajo was en route to San Diego from Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, and immediately reversed course once news broke of the attack. She became a critical element of salvage operations there, as did her sister ship Seminole, in the days following the attack.
Following the loss of the first two ships of the class, ''Navajo'' and ''Seminole'', the class was renamed from its original name of ''Navajo''-class to ''Cherokee''-class.〔Polmar, Norman.
