USS Georgetown (AGTR-2:AG-165)

USS Georgetown (AGTR-2/AG-165) was originally launched as a Liberty ship named SS Robert W. Hart in 1945. Acquired by the U.S. Navy in 1961, she was converted into a technical research ship, designated AGTR-2, as part of the "Liberty Ship" class conversions supporting intelligence-gathering missions during the Cold War. USS Georgetown conducted electronic surveillance and signals intelligence operations in various global regions, including the Caribbean and Mediterranean, from 1963 until her decommissioning in 1969. After her Navy service, she was struck from the Naval Vessel Register and ultimately scrapped in 1970.
