Launched on 5 September 1945, USS Tinian CVE-123 was a Commencement Bay-class escort carrier built for the US Navy. Although completed and delivered, she never entered active service and spent her entire career in the Reserve Fleet at Tacoma and later at San Diego. While in reserve, Tinian was re-classified as a helicopter carrier (CVHE-123) and later as an aircraft ferry (AKV-123). She was sold for scrap in 1971 having never been commissioned.
