USS Allagash (AO-97)

USS Allagash (AO-97) was a Cimarron-class fleet oiler commissioned by the United States Navy in 1945. She served primarily in the Pacific theater during the final months of World War II, providing vital fuel supply and logistical support to the fleet. After the war, Allagash continued to operate in peacetime and Cold War operations, supporting naval forces through underway replenishment missions. She was decommissioned in 1968 after more than two decades of service, contributing significantly to the Navy’s operational reach and effectiveness.
