USS REQUISITE AGS-18

USS Requisite (AGS-18) was originally built as a minesweeper (AM-109) and commissioned by the United States Navy in 1943. During World War II, she served in the Pacific Theater, conducting minesweeping, escort, and survey operations to ensure safe passage for Allied vessels. In 1945, she was converted to a survey ship and redesignated AGS-18, continuing her crucial work in hydrographic surveying and charting strategic waters. After the war, USS Requisite supported occupation forces in Japan and conducted further surveys before being decommissioned in 1946.
