USS Screven

USS Screven (AK-210) was an Alamosa-class cargo ship that was constructed for the US Navy during the closing period of World War II.

She served in the Pacific Ocean theatre of operations and returned home in 1946 to be placed into the "mothball fleet" where she remained until sold in 1947 for commercial maritime service.

Screven was laid down under US Maritime Commission (MARCOM) contract, MC hull 2164, on 11 July 1944, by Leathem D. Smith Shipbuilding Company, Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin; launched on 30 November 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Harold Roeth; acquired on 3 July 1945; and commissioned on 2 August 1945.

She sailed on 21 September and, after stops at the Panama Canal Zone and Pearl Harbor, arrived at Guam on 16 November.

Departing from Guam on 19 December, the ship arrived at San Francisco, on 9 January 1946 and proceeded to the US East Coast.
