==World War II==
Following the attack on Pearl Harbor the United States Navy leased California based tuna boats for the duration of the war or "until victory".〔''Former Tuna Boat Fishermen Sail "Yippie" Boats Against Japs'' ''Prescott Evening Courier'' Sep 7, 1943〕 On February 16, 1942, San Diego Port Director Commander W.J. Morcott called a meeting of tuna skippers and crews at the Naval Armory Reserve telling the men “The Navy needs men to man the () — experienced men, like yourselves. Needless to say, duty in the war zones will be hazardous.” Six hundred tuna boat men volunteered to join their boats in the navy.〔Smith, Jeff ''Tuna Boats Go to War'' ''San Diego Reader'' March 20, 2013〕 The boats were painted navy grey and had their names replaced with numerical designations. The ships patrolled the coasts of the United States, the Panama Canal and served in several battles of the South Pacific, particularly the Battle of Guadalcanal.
