Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. USS Achelous (ARL-1) was one of 39 tank landing ships converted into landing craft repair ships for service in the United States Navy during World War II. The lead ship in her class, she was named for the Greek god Achelous, the only U.S. Naval vessel to bear the name. She was laid down as the unnamed LST-10 on 15 August 1942 at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania by the Dravo Corporation; launched on 25 November 1942; sponsored by Mrs. George F. Wolfe, the wife of the chief engineer of Dravo; named Achelous and redesignated ARL-1 on 13 January 1943; and commissioned on 2 April 1943 at Baltimore, Maryland, Captain B. N. Ward in temporary command. Later that day, command of the landing craft repair ship passed to Lieutenant Walter Ringies.
