USS Conserver (ARS-39) was a Bolster-class rescue and salvage ship commissioned by the United States Navy in 1945. Designed for towing, salvage, and rescue operations, she served with distinction during the final months of World War II, supporting operations in the Pacific theater. During the Korean War and the Vietnam War, Conserver provided critical salvage and recovery services to stricken vessels and contributed to harbor clearance and repair missions. After decades of service, she was decommissioned in 1994, marking nearly 50 years of active duty in support of U.S. naval operations worldwide.
