USS Tunica (ATA-178)
USS ''Tunica'' (ATA-178) was a ''Sotoyomo''-class auxiliary fleet tug acquired by the United States Navy for service during and after World War II.
''ATA-178'' was laid down on 10 May 1944 at Orange, Texas, by the Levingston Shipbuilding Co.; launched on 15 June 1944; and commissioned on 15 September 1944, Lt. J. L. Robinson in command.
== World War II Pacific Theatre operations ==
Late in September, ''ATA-178'' picked up two barges at New Orleans, Louisiana, for towing to Hawaii. The tug transited the Panama Canal, stopped at San Diego, California, and reached Pearl Harbor on 10 December 1944. After a brief layover in Hawaii, she departed Pearl Harbor to tow one of the 10 sections of a drydock to Guam, where she arrived on 14 January 1945.
Not long after her arrival in the Marianas, ''ATA-178'' was assigned to the Samoan Defense Command. Between 10 February and 28 May, she towed supply barges between various bases in the South Pacific. Late in May, ''ATA-178'' joined other tugs in towing barge-loads of equipment from the South Pacific to bases nearer to the active theaters of operations. During the final three months of the war, she called frequently at Guam, Leyte, Manus, Eniwetok, and Kwajalein to deliver equipment-laden barges.
