High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USCGC Matagorda (WAVP-373), later WHEC-373, was a Casco-class United States Coast Guard Cutter in service from 1949 to 1967. Matagorda began life as the United States Navy Barnegat-class seaplane tender USS Matagorda (AVP-22). She was laid down on 6 September 1940 at the Boston Navy Yard at Boston, Massachusetts, launched on 18 March 1941, and commissioned into the U.S. Navy on 16 December 1941. She operated in the Caribbean and Atlantic during World War II. In July 1945 she began conversion to a press information ship, designated AG-122, for use in the scheduled 1945-1946 invasion of Japan, but was converted back into a seaplane tender when the end of the war made the invasion unnecessary. She was decommissioned on 20 February 1946 and placed in the Atlantic Reserve Fleet at Orange, Texas.
