USS Apache (ATF-67) was a Cherokee-class fleet tug commissioned by the United States Navy in 1942. During World War II, she provided towing, salvage, and rescue operations in the Pacific Theater, supporting fleet movements and damaged vessels during major campaigns, including operations at Iwo Jima and Okinawa. After the war, Apache continued to serve through the Korean War, again providing crucial support to naval operations. She remained active through the Cold War era, serving in various capacities until her decommissioning in 1974.
