USS Panay
Three vessels of the United States Navy have been named USS ''Panay'', after the Visayan Island Panay. * The first ''Panay'' was originally a Spanish gunboat in the Philippines, purchased in 1899 after the American occupation, and in various service until 1914, and sold in 1920. Among those who served upon her were future WWII admirals Chester Nimitz and John S. McCain. * The second ''Panay'' (PR-5) was a river gunboat launched in 1927, and served on the Yangtze River Patrol (YANGPAT) in China until being sunk by Japanese aircraft on 12 December 1937; sometimes referred to as the 1937 ''Panay'' incident. * The third ''Panay'' was the general auxiliary ''Midway'' (AG-41), renamed in 1943 to make the name ''Midway'' available for an aircraft carrier.
