USS ''Nokomis'' (YT-142/YTB-142/YTM-142) was a Woban-class harbor tug built in Bremerton, Wash, and assigned to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, in 1940. ''Nokomis'' was present during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941. She was the first vessel on scene at the USS ''Arizona'', and was called off by the officers on deck because of the imminent explosion of the battery below deck. It then left and helped beach the USS ''Nevada'', with , and YT-153. The beaching of the Nevada saved Pearl Harbor's mouth from being blocked. After that the USS ''Nokomis'' fought fires and dewatered the battleship USS ''California'', for 3 days. This effort made the ''California'' salvageable, to be recommissioned again later in the war. ''Nokomis'' was also the last vessel to move the surviving YC-699 barge prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Post-war she continued serving Pearl Harbor ships until she was decommissioned in May 1973, and eventually sold for "scrap" to Crowley, in San Francisco. She was renamed ''Sea Serpent'' and served many years in the San Francisco Bay as a tug and fire boat. In 1989, after the Loma Prieta earthquake in the SF Bay area, ''Nokomis'' and ''Hoga'' (which had been serving the City of Oakland as a fireboat) fought fires alongside each other again. ==Built in Bremerton, Washington==
''Nokomis'' (YT–142), a diesel electric tug, was built at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington; launched 29 November 1939; completed in March 1940; and allocated to the 14th Naval District for duty.
