Media (AK-83)
Media (AK-83)〔Only USS ''Enceladus'' (AK-80) of the ten ships of the ''Enceladus'' class, composed of Maritime Commission N3-M-A1 type small cargo vessels, saw significant naval service. Of the other nine, excpting USS ''Hydra'' (AK-82), all were transferred within months or days of shipyard delivery to Navy to the Army. ''Hydra'' was transferred to Army shortly after commissioning and trials. Navy had assumed the administration of contracts for these ships from the Maritime Commission on 1 January 1943 during or before construction and thus most were only administratively Navy, including names and numbers, during construction.〕 was a World War II US navy ship that was never commissioned and thus never bore the USS designation.〔http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq63-1.htm | Navy History & Heritage Command - Ship Naming in the United States Navy〕
''Media'' (AK-83) was contracted to be built as ''Oliver R. Mumford'' under Maritime Commission contract 4 September 1941 as a type N3-M-A1 cargo ship. She was acquired by the Navy 1 January 1943 before being laid down by Penn Jersey Shipbuilding Corp., Camden, New Jersey, 28 January 1943; launched 29 August 1943; sponsored by Mrs. Ernest G. Bornheimer; completed and delivered to Navy on 17 November 1943.
That same day ''Media'' was delivered to the U.S. Army and struck from the Navy list on 24 November 1943. The Ship was renamed ''Glenn Gerald Griswold'', after an Engineer officer killed while fighting a dump fire in Naples, Italy.〔http://www.clafma.org/griswold.html | County of Los Angeles Fire Museum Association; People Who Made a Difference: Glenn G. Griswold〕 The ''Glenn Gerald Griswold'' was converted into a port repair ship by Bethlehem Fairfield Shipyard, Inc., Baltimore, Maryland, on 5 June 1944〔http://140.194.76.129/publications/misc/un21/c-17.pdf United States Army in World War II - The Corps of Engineers: Troops and Equipment - Chapter XVII - Preparing to Reconstruct Ports〕 and sailed for Europe by summer's end. After the postwar work the ship was placed in the reserve fleet.
