USS Repose (AH-16)

USS Repose (AH-16) was a Haven-class hospital ship commissioned by the United States Navy in May 1945. Originally serving in the final months of World War II, she provided vital medical support in the Pacific theater. Repose was reactivated for both the Korean War and the Vietnam War, where she became known as the "Angel of the Orient" for her life-saving care to thousands of wounded service members. After decades of distinguished service, USS Repose was decommissioned in 1970.
