USS Delta (1864)
USS ''Delta'' (1864) was a steamship used by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Navy to patrol navigable waterways of the Confederacy to prevent the South from trading with other countries.
==Service as a tugboat during the American Civil War==
''Delta'' — a steam tugboat — was purchased as ''Linda'' at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 3 June 1864, and renamed ''Delta'' on 27 November. She was also known as ''Tug No. 4''. ''Delta'' was sent to Hampton Roads, Virginia, to be fitted as a torpedo (mine) tug, and operated in the James River under the command of Acting Master's Mate W. F. Gragg until 28 March 1865.
She was transferred to the sounds of North Carolina for duty, and for a short time in April 1865 was placed at the disposal of the Union Army with four other torpedo tugs.
''Delta'' was sent to New York at the close of the war and sold there on 5 September.
