USS Might (PG-94)
USS ''Might'' (PG-94) was laid down as Canadian corvette CN-312 by Morton Engineering and Drydock Co., Ltd., Quebec, Canada, on 28 November 1941 and launched as HMS ''Musk'' on 15 July 1942. The ship was transferred to the United States Navy on 20 July 1942, renamed ''Might'' on 14 August 1942, and commissioned at Quebec on 22 December 1942, Lieutenant Commander J. K. Hartley in command.
==Service history==
After fitting out and shakedown from Boston, ''Might'' reported to the Eastern Sea Frontier on 10 March 1943 at New York City for convoy escort duty. Sailing primarily to Cuba and occasionally to Key West, she continued this duty after transferring to the Coast Guard on 27 June, Lieutenant Commander J. P. Martin, USCG, in command.
During the next 18 months, ''Might'' completed 21 voyages to Cuba and two to Key West. The protection she provided made it possible for this vital coastwise and Caribbean traffic to continue despite German submarine menace and freed larger destroyer types for the hunter-killer operations which defeated the U‑boats in the Atlantic. In November 1944, and continuously from 9 January to 1 May 1945, ''Might'' served week-long barrier patrols in the western Atlantic.
After anti-submarine exercises out of her Staten Island base, ''Might'' arrived Charleston, S.C., on 28 June and decommissioned there on 9 October 1945. Her name was struck from the Navy list on 24 October 1945, and she was delivered to the Maritime Commission on 18 October 1946 for immediate transfer to her purchaser, United Boat Service Corp., City Island, N.Y.
