USS Superior (AM-311)
USS ''Superior'' (AM-311) was a steel-hulled ''Admirable''-class minesweeper built for the U.S. Navy in 1944. ''Superior'' participated in the final struggle in the Pacific Ocean against the Empire of Japan during the end of World War II and remained behind, after the war ended, to clear minefields laid during the war.
''Superior'' was laid down on 18 February 1944 by Associated Shipbuilders, Seattle, Washington, launched on 11 May 1944, sponsored by Mrs. L. H. Lyon; and commissioned on 1 November 1944, Lt. Norman R. Hanson, USNR, in command.

''Superior'' completed fitting out at Seattle, Washington, and then moved down the coast to San Pedro, California, for her shakedown cruise, and then on to San Diego, California, for sound training. She returned to San Pedro on 26 December 1944, and sailed from there, on 3 January 1945, for Hawaii. The minesweeper arrived there ten days later and sailed for Eniwetok on 19 January, as a convoy escort. She returned to Pearl Harbor and escorted another convoy EUK-19, to Eniwetok.
''Superior'' stood out of Eniwetok on 3 March, en route to Ulithi where she and Mine Group 2 (MinGru 2) completed final staging for the Ryukyu Islands operation. ''Superior'' began sweeping mines off Kerama Retto on 25 March. She remained at Okinawa, clearing mines and performing patrol duty until 5 May when she sailed for Ulithi. ''Superior'' joined another Okinawa-bound convoy and escorted it there on 27 May. She operated from Kerama Retto for the next several months, sweeping mines in the East China Sea.
