USS Supply (AOE-6)

USS Supply (AOE-6) was a fast combat support ship of the United States Navy, commissioned on 26 February 1994. As the lead ship of her class, she was designed to quickly deliver ammunition, fuel, and supplies to carrier strike groups at sea, thus extending their operational capability. USS Supply served in support of various fleet operations, including deployments to the Mediterranean and participation in exercises to enhance fleet readiness. She was decommissioned in 2001 and transferred to the Military Sealift Command, where she continued her logistical support missions with a civilian crew as USNS Supply (T-AOE-6).
