USS Koiner (DE-331)
USS ''Koiner'' (DE-331) was an built for the U.S. Navy during World War II.

She was laid down 26 July 1943, by Consolidated Steel Corporation, Orange, Texas; launched 5 September 1943; sponsored by Mrs. Mae H. Koiner, the mother of Lt. (j.g.) Koiner; and commissioned 27 December 1943, Lt. Cmdr. C. S. Judson, Jr., in command.

After shakedown off Bermuda, ''Koiner'' cleared Charleston, South Carolina, 28 February 1944, to join a convoy at Willemstad, Curaçao, N.W.I., and escort tankers to Mediterranean ports. For the next six months, she remained on convoy-escort duty in the Atlantic, making four round trip cruises from Curaçao to North Africa and Naples, Italy. Completing her final Mediterranean cruise 31 August, ''Koiner'' commenced escort duty for United Kingdom-bound ships. From 20 September 1944 to 1 May 1945, the destroyer escort sailed with five convoys to British ports. On 11 February 1945, ''Koiner'' likely helped sink U-869. Upon cessation of hostilities in Europe she began preparations for Pacific duty.
