USS Pluck (AMc-94)

USS Pluck (AMc-94) was an Accentor-class coastal minesweeper acquired by the U.S. Navy for the dangerous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing.

Following shakedown and training, Pluck departed Miami, Florida, 19 February 1943, for San Juan, Puerto Rico.

She soon operated from the American naval base at Trinidad, British West Indies.

She conducted minesweeping operations in the Caribbean to protect Allied shipping.
