USS Gabilan (SS-252)
, a ''Gato''-class submarine, was the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for the gabilan, an eagle-ray fish of the Gulf of California.
Her keel was laid down by the Electric Boat Co., Groton, Conn. on 5 January 1943. She was launched 19 September 1943 (sponsored by Mrs. Eleanor James, wife of Rear Admiral Jules James) and commissioned on 28 December 1943, Commander (CDR) K. R. Wheland in command.
== First and second war patrols, April – August 1944 ==
After shakedown out of New London, ''Gabilan'' sailed for brief antisubmarine training at Key West before transiting the Panama Canal for the Hawaiian Islands. She arrived Pearl Harbor 23 March 1944 and spent her first war patrol (21 April – 6 June) scouting the Mariana Islands gathering information for the United States invasion of those islands. Her second war patrol (29 June – 18 August) took her to the south coast of Honshū, Japan, where, on the night of 17 July, she made a daring radar chase through bright moonlight and phosphorescent water. Skirting dangerous reefs and shoals, she pressed home an attack that sank a 492-ton minesweeper.
