USS Samar (ARG-11)
USS ''Samar'' (ARG-3) was a Luzon class internal combustion engine repair ship that saw service in the United States Navy during the final days of World War II, and in the post-war period. Named for the Samar Island in the Philippines, it was the second U.S. Naval vessel to bear the name.
==Construction and final days of World War II==
''Samar'' was laid down on 21 September 1944 by Bethlehem-Fairfield, Sparrow's Point, MD, under a Maritime Commission contract (MC hull 2683); launched on 19 October 1944, sponsored by Mrs. Elsie M. Alexander, delivered to the Navy on 31 October 1944, converted to an internal combustion engine repair ship (ARG) by the Bethlehem Steel Co., Key Highway Plant, Baltimore, MD and commissioned on 5 June 1945, Comdr. Andrew M. Harvey in command.
Following shakedown, ''Samar'' sailed for the Panama Canal Zone, arriving at Coco Solo on 28 July. She transited the canal on the 29th and, while en route to Hawaii, received word of the Surrender of Japan. At Pearl Harbor on 16 August, the crew serviced ship for four days while awaiting orders. Underway 21 August, the repair ship sailed to Okinawa via Eniwetok and Saipan, arriving in Hagushi Bay on 22 September. Reporting for duty to Commander Service Division 101 and Task Unit (TU) 70.2.3, she proceeded to China six days later, stood up the Yangtze River on the 28th and moored to buoys in the Hwangpu River off Shanghai on 1 October. Within hours of her arrival, she had six small craft alongside for engine repairs. ''Samar'' remained at Shanghai for five months, racing against time as demobilization of sailors stripped her crew of trained repair technicians. At one point, 26 ships and boats were simultaneously assigned to ''Samar'' for repairs.
