USS Cossack
(SP-695)

Photographed circa 1919, after removal of her World War I armament.

Among the modifications she received during her Naval service was the addition of an enclosed pilot house. USS Cossack was stricken on 27 March 1919 and transferred to the U.S. Coast Guard on 22 November 1919.
