USS Requisite (AM-109) was an Auk-class minesweeper acquired by the United States Navy for the dangerous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing. Requisite was laid down 12 November 1941 by the Winslow Marine Railway and Shipbuilding Company, Seattle, Washington; launched 25 July 1942; and commissioned 7 June 1943, Lt. Robert W. Graham, USNR, in command. Following shakedown off southern California, Requisite proceeded to San Francisco. Thence on 1 August, she escorted a convoy to Honolulu. Attached to Service Squadron 6, she trained in Hawaiian waters into October. On the 25th, she cleared Pearl Harbor and headed for the New Hebrides to prepare for her first amphibious operation, the invasion of Tarawa Atoll, in the Gilberts.
