"Immediately after the war started, the Navy began to convert fast merchant ships to naval auxiliaries. SS ALCOA CORSAIR was among the first to be taken over for the Naval Service. In February 1942, the ship was converted to an attack and hospital evacuation transport. Her passenger spaces became hospital wards and officer accommodations and her cargo compartments where altered to berth combat troops and equipment. Her swimming pool, passenger public rooms and promenade decks disappeared or were changed beyond recognition. Dual-purpose and anti aircraft guns were installed. Her open decks were fitted with landing boat chocks and davits. The ship was girded for war and was named USS PINKNEY (APH 2)."
