About USS Canisteo
USS Canisteo (AO-99) was a Cimarron-class fleet oiler constructed for the United States Navy in the closing days of World War II. Commissioned too late for service in that conflict, she had a lengthy career in the Cold War that followed. She was the only U.S. Navy ship to bear the name Canisteo, after the Canisteo River in New York. Canisteo (AO-99) was launched 6 July 1945 by Bethlehem Steel-Sparrows Point Shipyard, Inc., Sparrows Point, Maryland, under a United States Maritime Commission contract; sponsored by Mrs. J. N. Chambers; and commissioned 3 December 1945.
