USS Rosewood (YN-26/AN-31) was an Aloe-class net laying ship built for the United States Navy during World War II.

Rosewood (YN-26) was laid down 18 October 1940 by the American Ship Building Company, Lorain, Ohio; launched 1 March 1941; and placed in service 13 September 1941.

Following transit of the St. Lawrence River, Rosewood moved down the U.S. East Coast to Norfolk, Virginia, and through the next spring operated as a net tender in the 5th Naval District.

She departed Norfolk 26 July, arrived at Espiritu Santo 19 October, and for over a year tended nets and performed escort duties in the New Hebrides area.

At Manus at the end of the month, she continued on to the Western Caroline Islands in February, and into June served at Ulithi.
