USS Savannah (AOR-4)

USS Savannah (AOR-4) was a Wichita-class replenishment oiler commissioned by the United States Navy in December 1970. Designed to provide underway replenishment of fuel, ammunition, and supplies to fleet units, Savannah served extensively in the Atlantic and Mediterranean, supporting carrier groups and participating in numerous NATO exercises. The ship played a crucial logistical role during the Cold War, ensuring sustained naval operations far from home ports. After over two decades of service, USS Savannah was decommissioned in July 1995 and later struck from the Naval Vessel Register.
