USS ''SC-49'', prior to July 1920 known as USS ''Submarine Chaser No. 49'' and USS ''S.C. 49'', was an ''SC-1''-class submarine chaser built for the United States Navy during World War I. ''SC-49'' was a wooden-hulled 110-foot (34 m) submarine chaser built at the New York Navy Yard in Brooklyn, New York, and was commissioned on 27 March 1918 as USS ''Submarine Chaser No. 49'' , abberviated at the time as USS ''S.C. 49''. On 26 April 1919, 26 sailors who had traveled as passengers from Cardiff, Wales, and arrived the previous evening at New York City aboard the cargo ship transferred from ''Bellingham'' to ''S.C. 49'' while ''Bellingham'' was at anchor off Tompkinsville, Staten Island. When the U.S. Navy adopted its modern hull number system on 17 July 1920, ''Submarine Chaser No. 49'' was classified as SC-49 and her name was shortened to USS ''SC-49''. On 24 June 1921, the Navy sold ''SC-49'' to Joseph G. Hitner of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. == References == * * (NavSource Online: Submarine Chaser Photo Archive: SC-49 ) * (The Subchaser Archives: The History of U.S. Submarine Chasers in the Great War Hull number: SC-49 ) * Woofenden, Todd A.
