ww2dbaseCommissioned in 1893, USS Oregon was one of United States' first true battleships. Although she was a veteran of international conflicts such as the Boxer Rebellion and WW1, by WW2 this last-standing Indiana-class battleship was near obsolescence. In 1922 she was nearly scrapped under the Washington Treaty, but she was saved by her record in the Spanish-American War. At the onset of WW2 for the United States, since she sailed at the speed of the Liberty cargo ships, notions to recommission her as an escort vessel were toyed with but ultimately not pursued. In 1943, the need for ships with large transport capacities finally called for her recommissioning by the US Navy, recalling her to service as an ammunition hulk at Guam, Mariana Islands. After the war, she broke loose during a typhoon and became stranded 500 miles away from Guam. She was recovered and was scrapped in Japan in 1956.
