USS Namakagon (AOG-53)
USS ''Namakagon'' (AOG-53) was a built for the United States Navy during World War II. In some sources, the ship's name is also spelled ''Namakogon''. After her decommissioning from the U.S. Navy in 1957, the former ''Namakagon'' served as Antarctic supply vessel HMNZS ''Endeavour'' (A814) for the Royal New Zealand Navy (1962–1971), and as ROCS ''Lung Chuan'' for the Republic of China Navy. ''Lung Chuan'' ended active service when she was decommissioned from the Republic of China Navy in 2005.
==United States Navy career==
''Namakagon'' was laid down 1 August 1944 by Cargill, Inc., Savage, Minnesota; launched 4 November 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Alfred J. Scobba; and commissioned 18 June 1945, Lt. (jg) Milton R. High in command.
The gasoline tanker ''Namakagon'' completed her U.S. Gulf Coast shakedown and, having filled her tanks at Baytown, Texas, departed for the Pacific Ocean, 19 July 1945. She arrived at Pearl Harbor as hostilities in the Pacific ceased and on 20 August continued on to Midway Island. Based at Pearl Harbor, she carried fuel to various islands of the Pacific, including Johnston Island, Canton Island, Marcus Island, Truk, Guam, Saipan, Okinawa, Peleliu, and Kyūshū, for over 18 months, then returned to the U.S. West Coast.
In early June, 1947, she completed overhaul at San Pedro, California, and on the 9th steamed north to her new homeport, Kodiak, Alaska. From there and from ports in Washington, she carried passengers and mixed cargo as she operated a gasoline provisioning shuttle to naval bases and stations on the coast and in the Aleutians. Detached from Kodiak in 1953, she returned to Pearl Harbor, whence she operated until June 1957. She then sailed to Mare Island, California, where she decommissioned, 20 September 1957, and entered the Pacific Reserve Fleet.
