High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Tidewater (AD-31) was a Shenandoah-class destroyer tender named for the Tidewater region of Virginia. Tidewater was laid down on 27 November 1944 at the Charleston Navy Yard; launched on 30 June 1945; sponsored by Mrs. Robert N. S. Baker; and commissioned at Charleston, South Carolina on 19 February 1946 with Captain Frank H. Ball in command. Since World War II ended some five months before the destroyer tender was placed in commission, she remained active only long enough to complete sea trials. She did not report for duty with the active fleet, but was decommissioned and ordered to the reserve group berthed at Charleston. There, she became accommodation ship for members of the staff of the Commander, Submarine Group 3. That duty continued through the outbreak and first 15 months of hostilities in Korea. By that time, the increased need for ships to support United Nations land forces fighting in that Asian country brought the destroyer tender into her first real active service. On 2 October 1951 Tidewater was recommissioned at Charleston, with Captain Harold S. Harnly in command.
