USS Edgar F. Luckenbach (ID-4597) was a cargo ship and troop transport that served in the United States Navy from 1918 to 1919.
SS Edgar F. Luckenbach, named for her owner Edgar Fredrick Luckenbach, Sr., was built as a commercial cargo ship in 1916 at Newport News, Virginia, by Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company.
She offloaded her U.S. Army cargo at Le Verdon-sur-Mer, La Pallice, Bordeaux, and Royan, then returned to the United States, arriving at Newport News on 26 September 1918.
In mid-December 1918, Edgar F. Luckenbach was transferred to the Cruiser and Transport Force to bring home sick, wounded, and convalescent troops from Europe in the aftermath of World War I.
It was highest of the many identification numbers in the SP/ID series given to private and commercial ships commissioned during and just after the war.
