USS Aldebaran (AF-10)

USS Aldebaran (AF-10) was a stores ship of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1941. Originally built as the SS Stag Hound in 1939, she was acquired and converted by the Navy to support fleet operations by transporting refrigerated stores and dry provisions. During World War II, Aldebaran served extensively in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters, supplying vital goods to naval forces and remote bases. She continued her service after the war, supporting occupation forces and later participating in Korean War logistics, before being decommissioned in 1954.
