USCGC Clover (WLB-292)

USCGC Clover (WLB-292) was a 180-foot sea-going buoy tender commissioned by the United States Coast Guard in 1942. Built during World War II, Clover served on the Alaskan coast, performing aids-to-navigation, search and rescue, and law enforcement missions. Over her decades of service, she played a vital role in supporting Alaskan maritime operations and participated in several notable rescues and icebreaking tasks. Decommissioned in 1990, Clover's long service exemplified the versatility and endurance of the Coast Guard's buoy tender fleet.
