The DeLong (TB-28) was launched 23 November 1900 by George Lawley and Sons, South Boston, Massachusetts; sponsored by Mrs. S. DeL.

Between 4 November 1902 and 2 July 1906, the DeLong was assigned to the Reserve Torpedo Flotilla at Norfolk, Virginia, then was returned to full commission for torpedo practice and training along the Atlantic coast and in the Gulf of Mexico. Again out of commission between 7 August 1909 and 30 April 1910, this time at Boston, the DeLong was in reserve at Charleston from 20 May 1910, going to sea occasionally to maintain her readiness for action. She lay in ordinary between 14 March 1914 and 7 April 1917, when upon the entry of the United States into World War I, she was recommissioned and fitted out as a minesweeper.
