  • After a shakedown cruise off the coast of California and Mexico, from March 14 through May 28, 1907, Milwaukee departed San Francisco, California on June 26, 1907 and cruised off the coast of San Salvador and Costa Rica threatening the local population and engaging in target practice with the squadron in Magdalena Bay. On March 26, 1908, the cruiser sailed from San Francisco for Bremerton, Washington, where she was placed in reserve on April 25. Except for a cruise in the summer of 1908 which took her to Hawaii and to Honduras, the ship remained in reserve status at Puget Sound Navy Yard until decommissioned on May 3, 1910. Milwaukee was recommissioned in ordinary service on June 17, 1913 and was assigned to the Pacific Reserve Fleet. In the next two years the ship made several brief cruises, one to Honolulu with a detachment of Washington State Naval Militia from the first through the twenty-second of July 1914, and several along the coast of California. On March 18 of 1916, Milwaukee was detached from the Reserve Fleet and assigned to duty as a tender to destroyers and submarines of the Pacific Fleet. Based at San Diego, the cruiser participated in exercises and maneuvers off the coast, patrolled Mexican waters, transported refugees, and performed survey duty. Milwaukee was then overhauled at Mare Island including the installation of heavy machine tools so the cruiser could act as a tender for the Coast Torpedo Force of destroyers and submarines.
