USS ''Westover'' (ID-2867)〔Although (the ''Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships'' (''DANFS'') entry for ''Westover'' ) gives her identification number as 2687, both (Online Library of Selected Images: ''Westover'' (American Freighter, 1918). Served as USS ''Westover'' (ID # 2867) in 1918 ) and (NavSource Online: Section Patrol Craft Photo Archive Westover (ID 2867) ) give it as 2867, apparently updating and correcting the number in the ''DANFS'' entry.〕 was a cargo ship of the United States Navy that served during World War I and was sunk during her maiden voyage. ==Construction and acquisition==
''Westover'' was laid down as the Design 1013 commercial cargo ship SS ''War Sun'' by J. F. Duthie and Company in Seattle, Washington, for the Cunard Line. During construction, she was taken over by the United States Emergency Fleet Corporation and renamed SS ''Westover''. She was launched on 17 February 1918.〔(Online Library of Selected Images: ''Westover'' (American Freighter, 1918). Served as USS ''Westover'' (ID # 2867) in 1918 )〕〔(NavSource Online: Section Patrol Craft Photo Archive Westover (ID 2867) )〕 On 9 April 1918, while ''Westover'' was still fitting out, the U.S. Navy inspected her for possible use during World War I. After her completion on 18 April 1918, she steamed to the United States East Coast and was transferred to the U.S. Navy in May 1918. Assigned the naval registry identification number 2867, she was commissioned as USS ''Westover'' (ID-2867) at Newport News, Virginia, on 22 May 1918.〔(Online Library of Selected Images: ''Westover'' (American Freighter, 1918).
