HISTORICAL NOTE: The USS Wolverine (IX-64) was a training aircraft carrier used by the United States Navy during World War II. It was originally named Seeandbee and was built as a luxury Great Lakes cruise ship for the Cleveland and Buffalo Transit Company. Seeandbee was launched on November 9, 1912 and was normally used on the route from Cleveland, Ohio to Buffalo, New York.
Seeandbee was acquired by the United States Navy in 1942 and was quickly converted into a freshwater aircraft carrier for the advanced training of naval aviators in carrier take-offs and landings. Renamed USS Wolverine she was not equipped with armor, hangar deck, elevators or armaments. Its propulsion was made by side paddle wheels.
The first aircraft landing on USS Wolverine occurred during September 1942. USS Wolverine along with her sister ship USS Sable was used for the training of 17,000 pilots, landing signal officers and other navy personnel with minimal losses. Following the end of World War II the Navy decommissioned Wolverine on 7 November 1945 and she was sold for scrap in December 1947.
