USS Stingray, a 238-ton Octopus ("C") class submarine built at Quincy, Massachusetts, was commissioned in November 1909. Renamed C-2 in November 1911, she served along the U.S. Atlantic coast until May 1913, then spent six months operating out of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. In December 1913 the submarine was transferred to the Panama Canal Zone. Except for patrol service off Florida in 1918, C-2 spent the remainder of her career in the vicinity of the Canal Zone. She was laid up there in August 1919, decommissioned in December of that year, and sold in April 1920.
