High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Carson City (PF-50), a Tacoma-class frigate, was the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for Carson City, Nevada. Carson City (PF-50) was launched 13 November 1943 by Consolidated Steel Corp., Wilmington, California, under a Maritime Commission contract; sponsored by Mrs. C. B. Austin; and commissioned 24 March 1944, Commander H. B. Roberts, USCG, in command. Carson City sailed from Los Angeles 19 July 1944 for Espiritu Santo and Milne Bay, where on 13 August she reported for patrol and escort duty in the New Guinea area- with the US 7th Fleet. She took part in the unopposed landings on Morotai 16 September, an essential preliminary to the Philippines operation, then took part in guarding ships, men, and supplies being assembled in the intricate plans for the Leyte landings. She herself sailed for Leyte Gulf from Humboldt Bay on 16 October, supporting the first wave of reinforcements for the Northern Attack Force. On 22 October she accompanied her charges into the landing area, and next day escorted the empty ships back to Humboldt Bay.
