USS Escape (ARS-6)
USS Escape (ARS-6) was an ''Diver''-class rescue and salvage ship commissioned by the U.S. Navy for service in World War II. She was responsible for coming to the aid of stricken vessels.
''Escape'' (ARS-6) was launched 22 November 1942 by Basalt Rock Company in Napa, California; sponsored by Mrs. J. E. Brenner; and commissioned 20 November 1943, Lieutenant W. T. Williams in command.
== World War II service ==
''Escape'' sailed from San Diego, California, 31 December 1943 for Norfolk, Virginia, where from 4 February she was based for general salvage and towing duties. Between 10 July and 9 September, she performed similar duties out of Bermuda, and on 12 September, put to sea from Norfolk to rescue hurricane-disabled ''SS George Ade''. She reached the stricken ship on the 15th, and brought her safely to port through another violent storm, in which she herself was damaged.
From 31 December 1944 to 4 June 1945, ''Escape'' again operated out of Bermuda, during this time aiding three large ships damaged by heavy seas. On 11 August, she departed Norfolk for the Pacific Ocean, but with the end of hostilities, her orders were changed, and after towing scows from Coco Solo, Panama Canal Zone, to Tampa, Florida, she sailed to Davisville, Rhode Island, for mooring buoys. These she laid at Jacksonville, Florida, in October.
