SC-22 was a wooden-hulled 110-foot (34 m) submarine chaser built at the New York Navy Yard at Brooklyn, New York. She was commissioned on 19 October 1917 as USS Submarine Chaser No. 22, abbreviated at the time as USS S.C. 22.

Submarine Chaser No. 22 was transferred to the U.S. Coast Guard on 13[1] or 14[2] November 1919 at Norfolk, Virginia.
The U.S. Navy adopted its modern hull number system on 17 July 1920, after Submarine Chaser No. 22 had left Navy service. Had she remained in Navy service at that date, she would have been classified as SC-22 and her name would have been shortened to USS SC-22, and she now is referred to retrospectively by this name.

The Coast Guard commissioned the submarine chaser as USCGC Quigley.
