== Service history==
''Procyon'' was built in 1919 by the American International Shipbuilding Corp., Hog Island, Pennsylvania, and launched as the SS ''Shaume''; taken over by the Navy on 8 November 1921 from the U.S. Shipping Board, under executive order of 29 October 1921; and commissioned on 30 November 1921, Lt. Bertram David in command. ''Procyon'' served as flagship of Commander Fleet Base Force, U.S. Battle Fleet, until she was decommissioned on 1 April 1931.
Inspected by the State Education Department of New York, she was found suitable for use as a Merchant Marine Academy training vessel; and, by request of Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, she was renamed ''Empire State'' (IX-38) and turned over to the state of New York on 15 July 1931. She served as a school ship for the Academy until 11 April 1940, when she was transferred to the Maritime Commission.
The ship was renamed ''American Pilot'' and sailed under the American flag during World War II. In the third quarter of 1948, ''American Pilot'' was scrapped at Wilmington, Delaware.
