USS Naifeh (DE-352)
USS ''Naifeh'' (DE–352) was a John C. Butler-class destroyer escort in the United States Navy. It was named for Navy Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Alfred Naifeh (5 January 1915 – 16 October 1942) who died when the USS ''Meredith'' (DD-434) sank during the Solomon Islands campaign of World War II. Lt. (j.g.) Naifeh was posthumously awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. ''Naifeh'' was laid down on 29 December 1943 at the Consolidated Steel Corporation shipyard in Orange, Texas; launched on 29 February 1944, sponsored by Mrs. Rathia Naifeh, mother of Lt. (j.g.) Naifeh; and commissioned on 4 July 1944, with Lieutenant J. S. Albert in command.

After commissioning, ''Naifeh'' trained and conducted shakedown off Bermuda, then had training ship duty out of Norfolk, Virginia. The ship departed Brooklyn, New York, on 6 October 1944 on the first of 2 voyages escorting convoys to Europe and North Africa. ''Naifeh'' departed New York on 13 January 1945 and steamed via the Panama Canal to the Pacific, arriving at Manus Island, Admiralties, on 20 February.
The destroyer escort was assigned to the Philippine Sea Frontier, and was based at Leyte Gulf. She was primarily occupied in convoy duty until the end of the war, escorting tankers and other auxiliaries to New Guinea, Ulithi, Palau, Guam, Manila, and Okinawa. ''Naifeh'' performed other duties such as weather ship, search and rescue work, and carrying mail. Once she displayed the three star flag of Commander Philippine Sea Frontier as Vice Admiral Kauffman was embarked on an inspection tour of the islands. She rescued the crew of SS Glenns Ferry on 10 October 1945 after the merchantman had grounded near Batag Island, Philippines. ''Naifeh'' stood by with a watch set on the grounded ship until a salvage crew arrived from Manila.
She was detached from the Philippine Sea Frontier on 27 November 1945 and proceeded to San Diego, California, arriving there on 17 December. She decommissioned on 27 June 1946 and entered the Pacific Reserve Fleet at San Diego.
