USS Vigor (AM-473)
USS ''Vigor'' (AM-473/MSO-473) was an ''Agile''-class minesweeper acquired by the U.S. Navy for the dangerous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing.
''Vigor'' was laid down on 16 June 1952 at Manitowoc, Wisconsin, by the Burger Boat Co.; launched on 23 June 1953, sponsored by Mrs. Charles C. Kerwin; and commissioned at the Boston Naval Shipyard on 8 November 1954, Lt. Walter W. Schwartz in command.
== East Coast service ==
After brief duty at Boston, Massachusetts, the minesweeper moved to Key West, Florida, for shakedown training early in 1955. During the cruise, she was redesignated ''MSO-473'' on 7 February. Minesweeper refresher training at Charleston, South Carolina, followed, and ''Vigor'' then began a tour of duty with the Naval Ordnance Laboratory at Port Everglades, Florida.
Later that year, ''Vigor'' became a training ship, first for the Underwater Object Locator School at Key West and then for the Naval Mine Warfare School at Yorktown, Virginia. Early in 1956, she again headed south to participate in the annual Caribbean exercise, Operation Springboard. During her cruise to the West Indies, ''Vigor'' made port calls at San Juan, Puerto Rico; and Fredricksted, St. Croix, in the Virgin Islands.
