The second USS ''Marmora'' (IX-189) was a United States Navy tanker in commission from 1944 to 1946. She saw service as a mobile floating storage ship during and in the immediate aftermath of World War II. ==Construction and early history== The ship was built as SS ''Montrolite'' by the American Shipbuilding Company at Seattle, Washington, in 1918. She operated in commercial service and was renamed SS ''J. S. Fitzsimmons'' in 1926. After the outbreak of World War II, Standard Oil of California chartered ''J.S. Fitzsimmons'' on 22 April 1942. Under the Lend-Lease program, the United States transferred her to the Soviet Union on 14 October 1942. In Soviet service she was renamed SS ''Valerian Kuybyshev''. The Soviet Union returned her to the United States at Pearl Harbor, Territory of Hawaii, on 13 December 1944, and the U.S. War Shipping Administration took control of her under her former name, SS ''J. S. Fitzsimmons''. The same day, the U.S. Navy acquired her from the War Shipping Administration under a bareboat charter and commissioned her with Lieutenant Grant R. Olsen, USNR, in command as the miscellaneous unclassified ship USS ''Marmora'' (IX-189) for use as a mobile floating storage ship.
